Re: FT8 for U3?
No, no , please no. FT8 is a 'QSO' mode and letting loose FT8 beacons in
the FT8 sub-band is, in my view, pointless and counter-productive and not
at all in line with the ethos of the mode. I find it

Re: FT8 for U3?

Re: FT8 for U3?
Hi Dean
I already coded FT8 in my U3, next version v3.13, last week. I have not yet
had a chance to test it. v3.13 also contains JT4 and RTTY modes.

FT8 for U3?
I think there are two answers to this one, but i'll ask all the same!
Any chance of FT8 mode being included in the U3 firmware.
I know the room in the ATMEGA is tight!? (PI mode anybody still use

Re: Overhauling my first and second U3s. PA bias and power output with (3) BS170 transistors question(s)

I had to unscrew mine.
I'd suggest ignoring Hans on this point and only use a few screws like I did when I reassembled.

Re: QCX firmware 1.00d release
Hi Hans,
does the 1.00d also contain the fix for the WSPR encoding (as described in?/g/QRPLabs/message/18134 )? Or will this be included in a future release?

Re: GLG1 tape?
Hi Keith
You can remove it on all. It was only intended to be an additional
protection during shipment.

Thanks for the info. I removed the tape on the first

The reason for the tape is that it provides some additional protection

Answering my own question. Set the bias per the manual. The high setting for PA voltage is a little over 7V. I could go higher but it's a weak signal beacon not VOA.
