Re: Project : Ubitx go box with batteries (topic will be updated upon works done)
Lithium-Ion batteries have a voltage operating range of 4.2V (fully charged) down to 2.8V? , hence 1.4V. Question : would 3x2.8V= 8.4V be adequate to operate the Ubitx ? If not I would suggest you

You can load it into the Nextion editor (free download) and flip it (odd number of degrees, not just "180", maybe 270?). Then re-save. ?Try to make sure that the sdcard slot is on top... Makes it

Yes, you can. If you have the .hmi file, open it with the Nextion editor, select Device on upper right hand of command ribbon, select Display on left, select 270 horizontal, and recompile. I compile

Re: Overvoltage to Ubitx - now no receive
I do work T 19v using a laptop adopter selected for low ripple. But , I DO TAKE CARE that a 12v 2 amp regulator supplies to blance circuitry other than the final IRFs. There also the current is

Please don't think of me as obtuse, though, in what way is your rectangular opening "upside down" for the display? I would second the recommendation of using a surrounding bezel to take care of this,

I don't know about reversal, that would be an elegant solution. Have you considered elongating or opening in the case and covering it with a bezel. Order the next larger Nextion and sell the one you

Re: Fix for Spurs and Harmonics on V3 Board
About the 12mhz spur, the trap I believe is not that simple. Please let me know a good design without affecting the 30 and 20m bands. Checking it on my SDR receiver is really very low. Il 16/set/2019

Dale I can speak to v3 and v4 because they are similar in this regard. First on harmonics an effective solution involves more isolation in the relays selecting the low pass filters. I am using the

Re: Overvoltage to Ubitx - now no receive
Sumit, You grossly over voltaged the LM386 audio amp. Other parts are likely suspect but start? there. Start at the speaker and work back. FYI: the only parts that would tolerate more than 15-16V

Re: Amplifier Talk- Communications Concepts
Gordon, Short form no.? The 6146 does require power to the grid to run though small. the key thing is you need 25-50V p-p of RF and to do that across the grid resistor and the 10-20pf of input
