QSSTV on Zbitx 10
Has anyone had success using the QSSTV program which is installed on the Zbitx? I tried many options available for the Sound but none worked. I cannot see any action on the rx waterfall, even when I see it on another rig. Thanks Joe VE1BWV

No output power 16
Hi all I've just received my Zbitx and plugged in for the first time, all seems to be working, I'm only using ssb, but when I touch the transmit it shows the screen but NO output shows and the swr remains at 0, so I don't think anything is getting out. I'm using an EFHW that the swr on my main rig shows about 1.2 - 1.5 . Do I have to set the internal mic on somewhere? I don't have an external mic yet so I'm using the internal one. Can anyone help please Martin G7UGB

ubitx will not transmit. 3
Folks, I bought the radio kit, built it and I don't believe I was ever able to transmit. I have another radio and I can receive on the ubitx but nothing I do makes a transmission. I bought a crummy baofung microphone and cut off the speaker connector. From what I could tell the 3.5 connector is supposed to be wired correctly for the ubitx. When I plug the mic in the red light on the mic is on. When I push to talk the red light goes out and the TX lights up onthe display. However, I do not hear anything on my other radio. Is there something simple I am missing. It has been ages since I looked at this thing and now I am somewhat regretting it again. It has been nothing but a headache. But I thought I would give it a try again. Thanks for any help you might be able to provide. Andrew

Batteries on ZbitX 2
Has anyone used the batteries like on the SbitX that use the XT60 connection. Yes I know its different but they do have adapters or I can make one to change from XT60 to 5.5/2.1. I know the ones I looked at are 7.4V and around 5000ma. Thank you Jim KE0VVu

Fixed: cw latency and wsjtx/flidigi sidetone 51
I have a minor update to make zbitx work with wsjtx/fldigi/etc and fixed cw latency. You have to update just the raspberry zero. From a terminal window, type this: cd ~/sbitx ./update sbitx this should do it

Web Interface Band Selection Buttons 4 #zbitx
Hello, At the web interface at the first row there are placed the band select buttons. Here I can see at the 10m Button under the 10M text the number 4. Funny thing is that this is only at the 10m Band button. When I added a 60m button => means one more Band Button at this row, the digit 4 disapears from 10m button and is now at the 12m button visible. Anyone else with this "digit 4" at 10m Band button? 73 Michael

Desktop microphone for sbitx 6 #sBITX_v3 #microphone #sbitx_v2
Desktop microphone for sbitx For a long time I only used the well-functioning modes with the sbitx device. I have established more than 10 thousand connections in digital modes, while I have conducted several tests in the voice mode using a microphone. The microphone I modified uses an external AGC amplifier and has a higher gain than the microphones recommended so far. I modified the so-called 'Meeting MIC' because there is enough space in its base for this modification. According to the description, the electret microphone has a sensitivity of -40dB, the AGC amplifier has a gain of 40dB in my settings. My experiences are good, because the stations that responded say it has a clear sound. I detail the description of the modification in the attached pdf. I hope that the retrofitters will have similar experiences. A little assembly experience is required for the modification. In sbitx 64 bit v4.4, I use MIC 25, COMP 4. -- Gyula HA3HZ

Microphone query 9
Can I just plug a general microphone with a mono 3.5 plug (and no switch) into the mic socket and use the on screen transmit/receive buttons or does it have to be configured with a ppt switch.

Zbitx Musings 5
Hi, Taken the covers off my Zbitx, and just trying to work my way around the PCB. In the circuits available which are possibly out of date, it shows LC matching on either side of the 40 MHz crystal filter. Looking at the board it appears to have one L matching inductor T30-6 with 13t (one is a wire link, but the 22pF capacitor appears to be still fitted) Please could someone confirm whether that is correct. Thanks Kevin

sBitx schematic for rotary encoder board? 44 #sBitx #sBITX_v3
I've been digging through all the schematics and I don't see anything for the rotary encoder board? While the board that's in there is functional, I'm not a fan of how bent the board is. Seems like a quick easy task for me to design a board that fits properly, but I need to know which encoders are used and if there's any other devices on that board.

Zbitx S meter
Hi, Received my Zbitx today. Many thanks for the excellent service. I wonder what the S meter calibration is. I read somewhere that the Bitx calibration is correct for IF gain of 53. But am not sure whether that applies to the Zbitx. Is it the conventional - 73dBm for 50uV/S9? Thanks Kevin ZL1UJG

Bad USB OTG 'microUSB to USB-A' in zBitx shipment. 6
The added BOXCON USB-A to micro-USB adaptor, white, small, delivered in a red/transparant sleeve is absolute garbage. It shorts the micro-USB port in the zBitx, thus crashing the PI... PLease do NOT add this item to further shippings as the quality can not be guaranteed. I will have to next week for delivery of a good micro-usb to USB-A adaptor, rendering the zbitx useles in the box... Such a shame. Martin, PD0ZZ, Netherlands

zBitx speaker noise? 7 #zbitx
I hear a pulsing noise from my zBitx speaker, even with a dummy load connected instead of an antenna, and both the audio volume and IF gain turn down. Seems to pulse or hum 3 to 5 times per second. Is this normal? Or an issue that needs to be fixed? Anyone else hear this from their unit? If it’s a problem with my unit, any ideas on where I should I look to diagnose and solve this noise issue? 73, Ron

zBitx Running Hot 4
I'm starting to learn the idiosyncrasies of the zBitx. It appears to be running very hot (while not transmitting). The Pi Zero is reporting a core temp of 72 C. That seems too hot, ...and not even while transmitting. (I have a PI5 with a cooler HAT that runs around 50 C) Will external heat sinks on the back cool the Pi Zero sufficiently? Am I cooking it to a slow death? Don in Austin N5CID
