uBITX Firmware (CEC) 0.30 released (Test version). #ubitx

Jack Purdum
 

Hi Ian:

I think you should consider it, as you have lost all type checking across files by making them all *.ino files. Obviously, this has not been a problem, but might be in the future. Just a suggestion to restore type checking.

Jack.
Thank you for your attention and advice.
I first used Arduino.?So I thought that Arduino was this style.(I did not know.)
I also decided that it would be nice to keep the original name in order to share code in github.?In fact, some or all of my code has been merged into someone else's project.
On the other hand, I received a pullrequest request from someone else and my code was modified.
But now I was wondering if I should keep this style with little or no original source left.

I released it to version 0.35 a few hours ago.It's got more features than I thought with the help of many great people. they has good idea and good suggestion.
I have put all the functions I wanted to put in, except to build in wspr.?So going to release Major in 1.0 soon.
I think this issue should be reconsidered at that point.

Thank you again for your interest.

Hi Ian:

I was wondering if you had plans to convert the support files for your software to *.cpp files from their current *.ino secondary file names (except for ubitx_30.ino)?

Jack.

I am always thanks for your advice.?
I decided to follow your advice and work for about an hour and change everything to cpp.
For the time being, i will keep the existing .ino (for forked other source) and provide the converted source to .cpp when version release.

Hi Ian:

No pressure from me, as it's your software. However, I think type checking is a real useful tool, especially when debugging code. I think everyone will appreciate it.

Thanks a lot once more Ian for your very prompt response and guidance on split function.

I will upload 0.35 this morning and give it a try.

Thanks for using this firmware.

split mode is very simple implement. when TX start (CW or PTT), Change VFO, and finish TX, back to VFO.
It actually took less than five minutes to implement. Because it is so simple structure, there is probably no big problem.
Instead, I put Vfo to Channel, Channel to Vfo in v0.35.?It is a function to put frequently used frequency into a channel and to call it as a VFO.
With uBITX Manager, you can using adjust Hamband, TX control, builtin memory keyer(autokey), adjust tune step... and?Accurate CW Keying by entering precise ADC value input

I hav plan to change the version to 1.0 this week and work on the video and manual.

Thanks agian.

Hello Ian,

Thank you very much for the updated version (CEC) 0.34 which is the first that I have uploaded to my newly received UBitx.
It has greatly improved the way my trx operates.
I will be testing it for a while, but generally speaking what I've tested up till now works to my expectations. Congratulations.

One thing that it is not very clear to me is how the split mode works. Is there a link or video for it? It would save me some time from trying to guess how and it would be greatly appreciated. As you may figure out, I also like to chase some DX as a QRP station!

I would like to invest some time to some necessary hardware improvements, number one being adding AGC (testing at first the original schematic), and then adding the s-meter to pin7.
I hope I can also find some time to play with your UBitx Manager.

Taking this opportunity, I would also like to comment that you are doing a very excellent job with your version of firmware for UBitx, and we as users must feel very lucky for that. Please keep the good work.
?
Very sincerely,

Sorry...I found the hex files


Thanks!

Now on version 0.35, another great increase in flexibility, thanks, I been trying the memory function, storing the FT8 frequencies, a small wrinkle, whilst the correct frequency is recovered from memory the stored sideband is not.? If USB iis set from the memory manager LSB is always restored, if the memory is set from the rig USB is only restored for frequencies above 10 MHz..

Thanks for very important information.
that is my mistake.
i plan release version 1.0 from version 0.35 with fixed it.

Thanks again, David.

Thanks for interresting.

I found a bug in version 1.0 and fixed it. Changed version to 1.01.
Click the link below to download the bug details and 1.01.

When I try to set " CW Autokey Mode? " I get the message " Empty CW data"
Firmware v1.01

Philip G7JUR
 

Philip

CW Autokey Mode is just builtin Memory Keyers.
uBITX Manager will save the text and use it.?Be sure to set Key type to IAMBC before executing Auto Key.
I'm sorry I can not post the explanation on it yet.

The following image is a test image of uBITX Manager running on Linux. Auto Key Mode was also used.



Thanks for your interresting

Hi Ian.
All explained.
Philip g7jur
 

Hello,
I am enjoying ver 1.01 of the firmware very much. When I wired up a paddle with the 2.2k resistor on the dit and 10k on the dah. I notice an extra dit/dah when using the paddle.?

Not sure if anyone has noticed this or did I miss a post about this?

OK,
I think I figured it out if the CW TX->RX is set 140 or up you get the second dit/ dah when you release the paddle.?

Jason

Nope, it is still there. Just not as bad.
 

Jason.
Thanks for your information.
Can you send me your settings?
If you send me the set value, I will test it together.

CW Speed (5th Menu),
CW TX-> RX Delay (5th Extra Menu),
CW Start Delay (6th Extra Menu)
CW KeyType (7th Extra Menu)


---------------------------------------------------
Please ask for the test as shown below.
CW Start Delay: 0?
? This is because the key value can be lost because the key and TX start at the same time. According to Beta tester, 20ms is optimal, however which differs from user to user. Setting it 0 up will make you feel like before.
? ?When using an external device such as a linear amplifier, it is better to increase the value.

CW Speed : 12~25 (you want)
CW TX-RX Delay : 600 (May be default value)
CW Key Type : IAMBICA or IAMBICB

-------------------------------------------------
Additional Information

Version 1.01 can be used with all resistors.?
By default, it is set to the range specified in 10K, 2.2K resistor and original source.
If only CW Key type is selected in the menu, you can use Paddle or Straight key.

I recommend that you use the ADC Monitoring function in Version 1.01 to make a note of the exact ADC value of Dot and Dash.
And adjusting the ADC value range of the CW Paddle in the uBITX Manager will probably be much better.
