UBITX v6 spazzes out when TX on 40m LSB
My antenna is tuned to a 1.2:1 SWR match. When I key down and try to talk the radio opens the menu and spazzes out. I¡¯m running KD8CEC firmware and a nextion 2.8 display on a ubitx v6

Re: uBitx V6 random tuning Jump
Welcome Ashok, That's an artifact of the momentum code, settings for the encoder in the factory firmware. Folks have enhanced the firmware for the Nano to overcome some of the operational shortcomings

uBitx V6 random tuning Jump
Hi all, I just powered up my shiny new uBitx V6 and immediately noticed that the tuning knob randomly jumps frequency that i cannot guess. Its like a race car. It jumps hundredths of KHz or sometimes

RPI Pico as Raduino CPU
HI experts, I am just curious if anyone has tried to make a Raduino from RPI Pico. It is now cheaper than Arduino Nano (at least in India, have not checked other country yet. Pardon me if I am wrong).

Re: Current options for replacing Raduino for v5 ubitx?
Lou, It works with the V5, although the wiring has to be modified a bit (Keyer an PTT pins). It's simple. Ram¨®n

Re: ubitxv6 kit - upgrade to 7in screen, need new case
I assume you are aware that the 7in screen draws a LOT of power! Pay attention to your power supply and make sure it can handle the new screen! -- Rich

Re: uBitX problem
Hi Vic, 1400 pF is very high gate cap for the uBITX application. Find legit IRF510s from a trusted source. I didn't research the BPF suffix, but a _quick_ scan of the linked datasheet passes muster.?

Michael, Other than buying an aluminum case and doing the metal work to cut out the front and back faceplates, no actual suggestions on the case.? I prefer metal for the RF shielding as the uBITX is

For desoldering you might need to add some more solder to transfer the heat into the broken off lead. -- 73 Dave ADOB ( https://www.qrz.com/db/AD0B ) Raduino bracket and Ham_Made_Keys (

Re: uBTIX no signal or reception
So your radio is not dead. I would figure out what is not in alignment. Don't worry about the nano pins just yet. The heat sink and associated voltage regulator do get hot. My uBITX uses about 300ma
