Re: U3S nearly built
Hi Andrew,
I have given some thought to the heat issue, especially regarding drift although I will be using the QLG1 GPS unit.
What I intend to do is drill a small hole near the end of the heatsink

Re: QCX: Aren't Clk0 and Clk1 supposed to be in quadrature?
Good news on the rogue solder ball find. Sounds like you are on the way
now.
I believe this type of issue will be causing a lot of the problems that are
being posted. There is not much room for

Re: QCX: Aren't Clk0 and Clk1 supposed to be in quadrature?
*Hold the fort! It turned out to be a stray subatomic solder ball!*
Here's the new scope screen grab: Woohoo! This is quadrature!

Re: QCX: Aren't Clk0 and Clk1 supposed to be in quadrature?
It looks to me like the Clk0 and Clk1 outputs are shorted to each other.

Re: QCX: Aren't Clk0 and Clk1 supposed to be in quadrature?
Hi Dave,
It looks like maybe CLK0 and CLK1 are shorted to each other since there appear to be three logic levels instead of just High and Low. One level when both CLK0 and CLK1 are? High, a second

Re: QCX: Aren't Clk0 and Clk1 supposed to be in quadrature?
Hi Dave
Have you checked with a DVM to see if there is a short circuit between Clk0
and Clk1? It's as though they are shorted together, fighting each other.

Hi Dave. I assume your scope triggering is set up so that you trigger off one channel and use this one trigger to trigger both channels and not trigger off each individual waveform? This is sometimes

Hi Guys,
I double-checked that 3.9 is set for 40 meters, as it should be.
