Re: uBITX 13 Colonies Clean Sweep!
Mike - The uBITX I run digital on has AGC mod (which is turned off for digital), 2.8" Nextion display, and the KD8CEC firmware.? The radio hooks up to an inverted vee by way of a QRP modded ATU100

Re: Here's the operating manual
So I¡¯ve started reading the manual, and this looks very exciting. For one thing, the possibility of rolling an eyes-free interface, with already available TTS or morse readout, is pretty exciting.

Re: Here's the operating manual
I see no point in using an eprom. Rpi is a computer running linux. We just open and write to a file on the sd card.

I have not tried it myself but I have read of others using an AT24C256 chip to add eeprom.? There is even an I2C module if you don't want to roll your own https://www.ebay.com/itm/195065541137 --

Farhan: Bear in mind that I've not played with the RP much, but why not add a button that reads a default setup from EEPROM?? Jack, W8TEE

Re: Here's the operating manual
I think it should be renamed default_settings.ini So if it gets garbled, you can copy it back. Frequently, I have changed settings (like turning on the rit) and wondered why the radio was misbehaving.
