Audio feedback?
If I were to guess, I would say that your power supply is not stout enough. Put an indicator LED at the power supply and see if it dims or flickers during transmit. If so, you need a heavier power supply. Another possibility is feedback in the microphone circuit during power-up. Probably the same solution or perhaps isolation. Is there feedback when the mic is held close to the speaker during receive? That would indicate a poor PTT connection. See if the switch is flaky. john AD5YE |

I had to replace the volume pot a week after receiving the BITX40. After a week of use I found the pot was becoming intermittent. 73 Ken VA3ABN On Sun, Jan 29, 2017 at 8:57 AM, Sourav <sourav.relja@...> wrote: No John...my pwr supply is an Alinco DM330FX.
