Re: Narrow bandwidth filter
Ashher,
Do I change only C25-C27 or would C61,C31,C23,C53 going to the bidirectional amps also need to be changed.

ADE-1 vs SBL-1 vs Diode Ring Mixers
Hello all!
I need to decide which bitx version to build (3B vs 3C).
As I understand, the 3B uses diode ring mixers and wound toroids, and the
3C uses factory made mixers.
My question is, *is there

Re: Bitx40 SI5351 drive strength
I take the ringing back, bad scope probe ground connection. Signal is much
better, 1.6 v p-p, sort of squarish with some ringing on top and bottom
peaks.

Re: Bitx40 SI5351 drive strength
Out of interest sake, I scoped the 5351 signal at T2 with 2ma and 8 ma. The
signal is identical. But the signal is distorted. The signal is 2 v p-p but
0.5 volts is ringing at the top and bottom the

Re: Qrp labs DDS question
You're right. Reading further on the Qrp labs website, they state Farhan recommends using the DDS and in that paragraph is says to cut out the coil. then plug in the DDS and you are good to go.

From 3/4 turn to 6 turn
Hello,
I wanted to share a gear reduction drive I made for my BITX40 kit that I got last week. A laser printer that I had stripped for parts had some nylon gears in it, and one of them was keyed,

Re: Qrp labs DDS question
If you leave the coil in place, you are providing a series LC
circuit to the load of the DDS.
At resonate, that would be a short to
the DDS to ground.
Probably not ideal. I'd remove it.

Qrp labs DDS question
When using the DDS is it necessary to take the coil , L4, out of circuit. By not using the tuning pot the circuit has no power., does the coil still affect the circuit or does it physically need

Re: Bitx40 SI5351 drive strength
Frankly, I haven't notice a difference between 2ma and 8ma, that's why I always leave them at 8.

Re: Bitx40 SI5351 drive strength
I run mine at 2ma and it seems to work a treat...

Re: QRP 40 meter frequency 7.285 MHz SUNDAY, 6:30 Eastern
Joe,
I could hear you, KD0OUR, and WB0WHD from my QTH in Idaho using my BiTX40v3. All 3 of you were just above the noise level. I tried to check in but I don't think 40 mtrs is stretching that far

Re: QRP 40 meter frequency 7.285 MHz SUNDAY, 6:30 Eastern
Hi Joe!
Ooops, I'm sorry but that wasn't my BITX, but a Kenwood TS-2000 (100w).
Deep fades as you said. The BITX is a Hendricks kit but I really want to
build one w/o PCB aka ugly.
Thanks for

Re: QRP 40 meter frequency 7.285 MHz SUNDAY, 6:30 Eastern
We has a nice BITX NET tonight. Four stations checked in. W3TTT, KC9DZT,
KD80UR, AND WB0WHD. The last station WB0WHD was using his BitX ! Even
with the poor band conditions, he got through to

My first experience with nano and 5351 was with Juliano's LBS. The code was
not using the library correctly and it turned out it was using th 2ma o/p,
or 200 ohms. I fixed the library calls to use the

You might want to consider this VFO sketch. I used this one with a Arduino Nano. It tunes normally with a encoder and display or you can control the frequency with any serial terminal program. Im

Re: PC Program to control the Si5351A
Hello Randy,
This info may be of help to you and may be not , but I think it’s worth a shot, as the software is written for the Si570 and is in the German language.
