Re: New Document File: Installing the IDE
Did you download/install the RA8875 and Open Audio Library from the hamradiodesigns.com site? Your compiler says that you placed the Teensy's Open Audio library in the Arduino library directory, but the patch expects it to be in the Teensy folder. Also, why is SerialFlash in the Arduino library forlder? I don't understand the SD references, either, since our code doesn't do anything with it. It could be that some library references it, but when I used GREP to check it, it appears that those references are from the Examples files that read audio data from SD files. I highlighted the error that killed the compile and it shows that you placed the Teensy Open Audio file in the wrong library directory. I would suggest you down load that and the RA8975 libraries and make sure you install them in the Teensy libraries subdirectory and try again. Jack, W8TEE

Got it Jack, I noticed some of the other .zip libraries were missing .cpp files as well.? So I just copied any sole .h files I found into the correctly named library folders alone.

Re: New Document File: Installing the IDE
Jim: No, you didn't miss anything. While it's not the way I would have done it, what they did was create a "Super Headerfile" and named it Audio.h. Its purpose is to assemble all of the supporting header files into one place. I can't be sure why it was done this way, but my guess is that different people wrote different library elements for the PJRC audio board and this was an easy way to collate them together.

I'm new to Arduino & such and I'm also reading your book on C for Arduino to get more familiar with it. Question on the install,?

Re: Fuses and Fans
Obviously that's one way to go and we actually tried that. However, the pre-regulator we used cost around $8 and was much larger than we thought QRP people would like. So far, it hasn't been a problem and we've been using it in one form or another for over a year. Jack, W8TEE

I haven't looked too closely at this yet as I am waiting on parts, but I'm getting the sense that a switching pre-regulator(drop 12V voltage before 5V/3.3V regulators) or simply replacing the 5V/3.3V regulators with one switcher may be a better setup. Junction temps are higher than fin temps. I don't like throwing heatsinks and fans at things. ?

Re: Fuses and Fans
When I run the transmitter at 12V, the current draw on voice peaks is about 2A. CW is about the same. When using the receiver only, it's pretty steady at 0.71A. Jack, W8TEE

Re: Fuses and Fans
The 3.3V regulator gets quite toasty as it draws most of the 0.72A when the rig is receiving. I just measured the temperature of the heat sink on the regulator with a infrared thermometer and it is 152F. A larger heat sink or a fan sure wouldn't hurt anything. Jack, W8TEE

New Document File: Installing the IDE
All:
I just wrote a new document file titled Installing the IDE. By the time you finish reading this, it should be on the web site for download. I can tell by some of the questions I'm getting that some are not getting the files installed in the right place. I think this file, plus the other recent ones we've added, should make it more clear where things should be and, more importantly, why. BTW, the JackAl source code consists of 19 files and all 19 of those files must be in the same project directory. You should NEVER have a downloaded library's code in the project directory. A library file should end up in either the Arduino's default libraries directory or the Teensy libraries directory. (Hopefully the new doc file will make that more clear.) If you write a new library of your own, of course it's okay for you to put your code in the project directory. However, once debugged, you should structure the code as a library and move it to one of the libraries directories. Anyway, I hope the new doc file helps make it more clear how to work the the IDE and the Teensyduino. Jack, W8TEE |

Re: Arduino IDE version 1.8.8 issues
It's not that hex files aren't good idea, but when you have the source code, why not use it. Also, a hex file just adds another file that we would have to compile/upload and do a web site update each time anything changed in the source. Anyone who compiles, uploads, and tests the code is free to upload it to the Forum. Jack, W8TEE

Roy?may have?a good idea for now or later though.? If you did happen to have a known good hex file that could be XLOADed to do the initial power up - and without ever suggesting any expectation of you guys updating software unless you were having fun doing it - that file could be really useful to guys like me that sometimes don't quite get all the hardware correct the first time out, or perhaps had a bad component, or still mess up on a library from time to time.?

I hope it doesn't sound like asking the teacher to do?our homework - at least we'd?could quickly confirm proper hardware operability and then get?on with it?:) FWIW
