Re: Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode - Further observations
Hi Clint,
Not sure if this is relevant or not, but I am still in the process of finishing off my board and noted a timing issue when running WSPR with the clock free running (v1.5 firmware).

Re: Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode - Further observations
Hi Hans,
Thanks for the thoughtful reply!
I'll disable the GPS mode and look to see if the clock accuracy works as it should when free-running: I've not tried that and in retrospect, it would have

Re: Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode - Further observations
Hi Clint
There's a lot of information there, I have some things to comment/suggest
etc.
Firstly, I think it would be wise to check that the clock divide-by-8 fuse
problem isn't applicable to your

Re: Constant carrier
That's good to know. I was trying very hard to think of something that I'd done wrong and I just couldn't think of anything.
I still have a small problem with the unit being a bit funny about

Re: Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode - Further observations
I've had a few minutes to stare intently at the display and I have made a few observations.
First of all, here's what I've done to rule other things out:
- I was able to issue commands to the GPS

Re: Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode
Interesting about the re-application of power to get the unit to start- I recently had a PIC based project that had the same start up problem and I discovered that I had to switch from a regular 7805

Inconsistent timing in WSPR mode
I've put my 30 meter UQRSS together and have been fiddling with it for a bit now and have noticed something that has me scratching my head.
I'm using a Axiom Sandpiper II GPS module that has a serial

Re: 40m-UQRSS-MCU also suitable for 40m?
Hi Stefan
Just to confirm what others have already said - there is no change in the
processor at all, they are all identical for any frequency from 0.5MHz to
20MHz. You must enter the correct

Re: 40m-UQRSS-MCU also suitable for 40m?
GQRP club have the 7040Khz crystal too...
Also,the 3500 and 7000Khz crystals from AM Tools are the ones that will pull further and are ideal for the UQRSS kit on 40/80 QRSS.
They are the larger can

Re: 40m-UQRSS-MCU also suitable for 40m?
Hello Philip,
many thank's for your info. Sometimes it is better to ask first.
So I will build it up for 40 m and therefore ordered a quartz with 7,040 MHz for 40m-WSPR-band

Re: 40m-UQRSS-MCU also suitable for 40m?
Stefan
I have a kit with sockets for the capactitors and crystal and I use external LP filters to suit each band..
The same board works on 20/30/40 and 80 so yes, you're good to go..

Re: Bits and pieces. General stuff.
Thanks lads for the replies.
I think that's where some confusion has arisen, because the G0PKT/

40m-UQRSS-MCU also suitable for 40m?
Dear Hans and dear Stephen,
I have here 2 kits of 30m-UQRSS. The first one I have built up, working well.
Now I think about building up the second one not for 30m but for 40m.
The question is: Is

Hi Andy
I'm not sure exactly what G0PKT is doing. Not everyone is using the
"Ultimate" kit of course ;-) So he may be using something else.
In the Ultimate kit is is possible to program your own

Re: Bits and pieces. General stuff.
Hi Andy,
I guess you mean by the "drawing modes" the Triangles and SlantCW and FATCW
these are generated by Chris DL6JAN's CWKTiny keyer.
G0PKT and others use this with the first QRPLabs kit instead

Re bits and pieces
Andy,
Please take a look at the manual which you can download from

know.
