You can download HEX file and uBITX Manager from the link above. You can also download the source code at https://github.com/phdlee/ubitx and see all the changes I've made so far. If there is a non-critical bug in the public version, I will link to the new firmware in the above blog.

You can do that yourself. If you don't know how to change the firmwear, there are a bazillion links online to show you how. May as well learn, as there may be other things you'd like to change down the road. Near line 1200 in setup(), you will find code similar to: ? if (userCallsignLength > 0 && ((userCallsignLength & 0x80) == 0x80)) { ??? userCallsignLength = userCallsignLength & 0x7F; ??? printLineFromEEPRom(0, 0, 0, userCallsignLength -1, 0); //eeprom to lcd use offset (USER_CALLSIGN_DAT) ??? delay(2000UL);??????? // Increase from 500 ? } ? else { ??? printLineF(0, F("uBITX v0.20")); ??? delay(2000UL);??????? // Increase from 500 ??? clearLine2(); ? } ? The line in YELLOW will increase the delay time from a half second to two seconds. Jack, W8TEE
