Like some other folks, I have an unbuilt v.4. I've waited to build it until the dust settled over the fix for the harmonics and spurs. I've begun putting it together and realized how hard it is to find good information specific to the v.4. Not because it isn't there but because at the time the fixes and mods were written up they weren't identified as v.4. I'm not saying anyone was lacking in any way, it was the current version and people wrote issues, mods, and fixes. They didn't know that we'd later have a v.6 that was quite different from the v.4.?
Based on a comment by Curt in an earlier post (ubitx 4 - want a fresh start, need guidance) he posted a link with some great uBitx v.4 build information.? ? ? ? ? ? ?

I have a v4 uBitX and have made a number of mods that I described and posted with links here:
Hope you find that useful, I really enjoy my rig. I still need to address the low CW power on 40m, but I think a 0.1uf cap paralleled across C81 has been suggested as a fix, so that is on the list.

Vic
Thanks for posting your mods, I will review and learn some more.
No 0.1 uF sounds way to large to add to c81. If a rig has a severe dip at 40m, like only 2 or 3 watts, adding something like 100 to 300 pF will improve it. Try what you have, it will vary by rig and may not be that sensitive to exact value, just like the real difference between 5 of 6 watts to be barely discernible to the receiving operator.
For v4 harmonics, either substiting axicom relays or adding a separate set of relays on a daughter board should reduce them. Axicom relays appear to also reduce leakage resulting in mixer spurious, on some of our tested units. Others add shielded inductors at l5 and l7. Note harmonics impact bands 20m and below, and mixer spurs on 17m and above.

Boa noite, grupo.
Tenho um uBITX V4, e queimaram as suas sa¨ªda IRF510, n?o tenhos IRF510 de reserva, mas tenho no estoque dois RD16HHF1, posso trocar por IRF510, quais as provid¨ºncias neste caso? ----- Good night, group.
I have an uBITX V4, and they burned their IRF510 output, I don't have an IRF510 in reserve, but I have two RD16HHF1 in stock, can I exchange for IRF510, what are the measures in this case?

Hi Vic,
Adding 0.1uF will result in basically no frequency compensation for Q90.? Looking at past posts, Allison ended up with a total of 1100pF for C81.
73,
Mark

Mark
perhaps she made other adjustments, as mine improved greatly with just a few hundred pF added at C81.? please see Asshar's post about C81, I think my adjustment is consistent with what he was recommending for the FEW v4's that have a dip at 40m.?
Curt
|
Curt,
I wasn't arguing against your advice.? I merely stated what Allison said worked well for her.? She made other modifications too, but the order is not always clear in the older posts.? In any case, since users' rigs all seem to be a bit different, a few hundred more pF to C81 maybe be perfect, or it may require more or less e.g. experimentation may be necessary.
73,
Mark

My V4 shows a 470pf at C81, and my comment was a reflection of a bad pencil note on my "to do" list. Previous posts had suggested 0.01uf across C81 as improving the low power on 40m, so that's what I should have said. However, I won't be doing anything until I scope it out a bit more. The CW output is pretty low, 3w, while SSB is around 7w. Other bands below 17m are double that. But, as I said, I'll do some more testing to be sure of the scope of the issue which I see others are dealing with, as well. Thanks for the comments.
=Vic=

OK, some data. Looks like power out is OK and pretty much as expected for a V4, except the odd drop in CW output on 40m and 17m. Now I am not as sure what to try next as the change at C81 should affect both SSB and CW.  Output through a simple MFJ 822 watt meter into a dummy load, so +/- 10%? SSB by a sustained "AAHHH" into the microphone. =Vic=

Vic,.
??? This is with 12v power, correct?

That v4 looks suspiciously like mine. You can search for Asshar's own words on c81, or tack solder something like 200 pF in parallel,? it might take an iteration but I was happy with the first cap I tried.
Given that the designer chose 470 pF to compensate the transmit chain, and since most v4 are fine as is, I think my suggestion to add a fraction of this value is rather credible. But if someone wants to try 0.01 uF, give it a try. Yes someone here did, and the higher bands? dropped a bunch.
Curt

The power supply for these measurements was 13.8v, Tom.

ALL
I have uBITX v4 and use it only for FT8 in 40m, but the IRF510 outputs are burned, I am changing them, how do I check if the bias and power settings are correct?
a) I check the tension in the GATE or,
b) the current in the DRAIN?
c) the output power on FT8 at 40m (7,074 MHz), adjusted on VR1?
If I choose to use two IRF520 in place of the IRF510, should I make any changes? any recommendations?

Rubens,
Most likely it was heat that fried your finals.? Digital modes have been reported to have this issue on all of the uBiTx models, as they keep the transmitter on for 15 seconds at a time at full power.? Before going back on the air I would suggest that you add a fan, larger heatsinks, or both.? Remember that the stock radio does not have electrical isolation of the heatsinks.? Either keep the new heatsinks isolated, or add the insulators for the IRF510s.? The alternative is to reduce the output power with the RV1 adjustment.??I would adjust RV1 using an RF power meter and keep it under 10 watts for 40 meters.? Monitor your finals temperature to verify that they are not getting too hot.? As long as you can keep your finger on them right after the end of transmission, then they should be OK.? I would send a continuous tune signal for at least 15 seconds into a dummy load, turn off the power and immediately check the finals.? I did learn that if you do not turn off the power, there is a large risk that you will move the heatsink and short it out, usually just blowing the fuse.
As to how to set up the bias values for the new finals, there are instructions on the HF Signals and ubitx.net sights.? I have used HF Signals for the bias adjustment:
You should not need to adjust the BFO or frequency calibration.
The above are just suggestions.? There may be better ways to do the testing, however, the ones that I know of would require an IR measurement device.

All Step Up (boost converter) arrived, so I get 20Vdc output from 13.8Vdc input, I used 20Vdc to power PA Power of uBITX v4, when adjusting the Ibias, the current went up at once reaching 15A , obviously damaged IRF510, PA Power plug, Ammeter ... I replaced the damaged components, so this time I installed a 0.34 Ohms power resistor (5W) in series with the step up output (20Vdc), but the output power is low, even with RV1 at maximum ... and C81 capacitor with 100nF, I only got about 8W.

Hi,
Did you reset the bias pots for the finals at the new voltage? You would have to set them to minimum (full clockwise) and then apply power. Go through the whole procedure for setting the bias with the 20 volts applied instead of the previous 12 volts.
Can your buck/boost gizmo supply enough current. Twenty volts with no load drops to what voltage when transmitting (measured at the radio)?

Bill Thanks for answering me! Obviously, I fulfilled the ritual to the letter, as I have been in the maintenance area for over 45 years. With reference to the voltage gradient of the converter booster (stepup) convert, at empty we have 20Vcc adjusted in the multiturn trimmer and in TX, obviously the voltage drops (dropped to 19.98Vcc). So I found it strange 20.00 - 19.98 = 0.02Vdc, and as V = R x I, considering R = 0.34 ohms and V = 20Vdc, we would have a current of approximately 588.24mA, ignoring losses. We have something strange ... 588mA - 200mA = 388mA (current in TX, discounted Ibias). 73 PY2PVB

Hi Rubens,
Not to offend but things you mentioned as obvious are not obvious and not stated in your post. That RV1 controls the drive level though Q90 in my V3 (if I recall correctly) and in turn controls the finals. That transistor sets the drive level. Mine is currently dead. Yours may have been damaged when the finals and your meter were burned out. You did not mention looking there. That is the next place I would look. I have only just cleared my workbench of other people's radios and I will now replace that transistor in my own radio:)
