BITX40 and uBITX Kits missing encoders for VFO!
#ubitx
#bitx40
Bill Maier
I just received a uBITX yesterday and I'm a total noob at this. I have a small cylinder about 1 cm in diameter and 1 cm high. Is that the electret mic? If not what is it? I do have a small rectangular piece with a knob on top and pins on the bottom, which I assume is the tuning encoder.

Bill & Mike--- the mic looks much like a pencil -eraser end with 2 solder blobs on one end, black felt on the other.. That's the end you talk into..
The encoder is less than a postage stamp square, with a knob that rotates on top.. solder? pins on the bottom.. The BITX40 uses a 10K pot for tuning...not an encoder. Larry W8LM ARRL Life member - Licensed 368 DOG years.. |

As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words:) When they said that they didn't have video <sly grin>. Good job. 73, Bill KU8H On 06/17/2018 10:05 AM, Doug W wrote:
