I have a V6 kit NOT the full kit I'm build some bigger here one thing I doing I moving the keyer and headphone to the back using so239 and XT60 panel mount for power over kill...
Now I have been looking at Nextion 3.5 display $40.00+ damn the are expensive what I like to can I just replace the 2.8 TFT display with?3.5 Inch 480x320 SPI Serial TFT LCD Module Display Screen with Press Panel for about $23.00 here check it out that know more then I do about this:::????
If some out there in ubitx world that have a 4.3 or 5 inch nextion display that works with bitx v-6 used there would like to sell let me if not to bad $$$ I may just get it ...

Hello Ed,
the "3.5 Inch 480x320 SPI Serial TFT LCD Module Display Screen with Press Panel" users a different controller ( ILI9488) than the 2.8" display delivered with the uBitx (ILI9341). This will require most probably in-depth code changes, as the "pdq_gfx_libs" used in the fast versions of the uBitx does not support this controller.?
You would have
1.? ?to find a similarly fast library for the Arduino supporting ILI9488
2. change the UI code, to adapt to the higher resolution.?
3. from another project with an ESP32 I also learned, that the ILI9488 is much slower than the ILI9341.?

I could find ILI9341 displays up to 3.2", which would not require any code changes. The 0.3" will not justify this effort.?

73, Joerg

BTW: Try the N8ME_2 software from the files section with the ILI9341 display and you will see, that there will be no need any longer to increase display speed through a Nextion display.?
I have been greatly impressed by the improvements vs.? the OOTB software. It makes the uBitx a completely different transceiver.?

Many thanks to N8ME!!

Hello,

Do try N8ME's firmware with vu3gao mods. File has been uploaded at :
