Re: Programing Help for updating Bitx40
Totally biased, but there a book titled Beginning C for Arduino, 2nd Ed. by a guy named Purdum and the first two chapters contain exactly what you're looking for. Go to Amazon, read the reviews and

Programing Help for updating Bitx40
#Bitx40help Greetings group, I am very new to programing and would really appreciate anyone who would be willing to reprogram my new BITX40 with the newest software raduino_v1.27.3.ino (

Re: Two little circuit boards for my Bitx40 txcvrs
Ive got two of these that i need to find some time for. There is a module called "one big punch" which is think uses a chip from this family and the elecraft k2 ssb module uses one also. Im thinking

Re: uBITX vs HW-8
I remember buying the HW 8 and matching power supply back in 1981 and if I remember right I paid just a bit over $100.00. Ordering from the Heathkit catalogue. Wish I still had it. Sent from my Sprint

Re: Reverse polarity diode circuit
I still think the Fast Acting Fuse and Diode is the answer. I got small pigtail 4A fuses from All Electronics.? They are 30 cents.? I wrapped a spare inside BitX. If I ever Blow it, the replacement

You will love this on CW I had to tone it down to get a clean 5W it was near 8W before (I have amps with 5w drive for qth ops). 1st contact was w1aw for the state ops they did last year. I haven't

Re: Reverse polarity diode circuit
The polyfuse looks very interesting, I had never heard of these before. Downloaded the spec sheet at Jameco but there is very little info on it. How do you reset a polyfuse, or does it reset itself

Re: Two little circuit boards for my Bitx40 txcvrs
Also possible to use two soldering irons (one to heat each end of the SMD component). They will stick to one of the irons so be prepared to wipe them off with a sponge or other iron cleaning tool. _._

Re: Two little circuit boards for my Bitx40 txcvrs
Or crush the SMD with clippers, then remove each half individually with a small solder tip. John

Re: Small question about LCD mounting
Dan and all, the proper way would be to position your decal exactly before using the Solvaset. When you apply the Solvaset, DO NOT TOUCH THE DECAL AGAIN until it is perfectly dry -- maybe a couple of

You may well be the first to try these out. It is madness season in ZL with all projects having to be finished before Xmas and long summer vacation time! Mike ZL1AXG [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Two little circuit boards for my Bitx40 txcvrs
When you use a hot air gun for soldering or removing parts you stand the risk of causing other close parts to move around. I just use my soldering iron and rotate the heat from one end of a component

Re: Two little circuit boards for my Bitx40 txcvrs
Hello Mike, A Hot-Air Gun seems to be the recommended way to remove SMDs from a PCB. But please be careful. I recently bought one, and I have toasted a couple of "practice PCBs" while learning how to

Re: BITX40 - frequency spectrum - Raduino irradiation - intermodulation products - #bitx40help
Jeffrey, you don't necessarily need to do any programming. Just download the software to your PC and then upload it into your Raduino via a USB cable. To do this you first need to install the Arduino

Thank You Allard, I have never programed, but that will be the next thing to learn. I appreciate the links and info. Now to learn the programing. 72, de Jeff K9JP
