Re: Who has uBITX with Nextion display in action pictures ?
I have the Nextion 3.2 (non enhanced) display working with my uBITX, but the screen is not fully utilized.? The file I used is ubitx_32.tft.? Will an updated .tft file for the 3.2 display be available at some point?
Thanks to all who have made this great little rig available to the amateur community - your hard work is appreciated! 73, Bill |
Re: LED Power Output Indicator

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIt isn't a voltage doubler. You need a
second cap for a doubler. The Diode to ground keeps the load
symmetrical (more or less) for positive and negative excursions.
There is no need to double the voltage, there is plenty of voltage
and current available to light an LED.?

Re: Completed my QCX
#ubitx
Thanks Lee.
Now when my version 4 board gets here I know what I am doing.? Hopefully it will be an even better build, especially the enclosure.? I still need to do a few things to this one, I plan on changing out the AF control with another one that has a more user friendly knob attachment.? I was lucky I had this old knob that had two set screws that were 90 degrees to each other. I didn't leave much room in this one for upgrades, but I am going to do the S-Meter and the AGC.? Still looking at all the different mods others have done. -- Judd, WD8WV |

Re: Hijacked: C vs C++
Jack Purdum
The bloat in the Arduino IDE isn't nearly as bad as that. After all, you all have been using C++ the moment you used Serial.begin() in a program. Indeed, I don't think I've seen any Arduino libraries that weren't written in C++. I do agree that C is much easier to use and that's my preferred programming language. Still, the OOP Trillogy brings a lot to the table in terms of making one's code a little more bullet proof. The good news is that you can apply some of those safety concepts without really having to go full bore on C++. I, too, will stick with C, but I'm not against swiping some good stuff from C++ when I can. Jack, W8TEE

Re: LED Power Output Indicator
#ubitx
Please don't assume a 3.0 volt LED and reasonable brightness. As I already stated,
I used a clear red LED and it is nice and bright and fun to watch. I have received all the information I was looking for.?? Thank you. It works great just the way it is.? "If it aint broke, don't fix it." -- Lee - N9LO? "I Void Warranties" ? |

Completed my uBitx and my own home brewed enclosure. ?Nothing fancy but all built by hand and a drill and Dremel with a cutting disk and sanding drum. ?Still have to do some mods like the s-meter and agc.
