You are right, Mitch. In general, virtually all of the microcontroller chips on Blue Pills are fakes/clones. And the knockoff programmers also use fake STM32 microcontrollers inside of them. Quality

Thanks for the response, Bruce. I have a couple of the ST-Link v2 programmers that I had never tried to use. After trying to use the first one, unsuccessfully, I switched to the second one. It kinda

With the STM32 'Blue Pill' and an ST-LINK/V2, a .bin file can be uploaded relatively easier than installing the tool chain for the STM32 and getting it to work in the Arduino IDE. If I remember

Mitch, Yes, the STM32 can be difficult, especially if you are trying to get a bootloader working. I never got a bootloader to work well. Even if you do, the USB connectors on the Blue Pill are

Bruce, I sure hope you consider adding ESP controllers to the GPS clock. I have spent two evenings trying to program STM32 blue pill boards, with limited success. One board I have managed to get

Karl, Your design really looks very attractive! I am ready to put my 9" version together, received the Adafruit ESP8266 card yesterday. I would like to build a small version to give as a gift to a

Hello Karl Jan LA3FY, Wow! Nice enclosure for your W8BH NTP Clock. That looks really sharp. Thanks for sharing. Regards, Ken, KM4NFQ "Not Fully Qualified" /g/w8bhMorseTutor

Bruce, thank you very much for making such a nice project! The code compiled without any problems, and together with a new printed box, I've got a very nice clock for the shack! I have used

Thank you, Bruce W8BH, for sharing your work with us All of it looks very good. You have the beginnings of a book. I am still going to try and make one from a W8BH ESP32 Morse Tutor. Maybe next month

There are a few small updates to the NTP clock. The code now supports ESP32 and ESP8266 microcontrollers. New PCBs using the ESP8266 were designed, which support 2.2, 2.8, and 3.2" displays. And a

Thanks for the info. I believe that I have at least one of those in my connector “box” under the bench. I’ll have to get it out and give it a try! Thanks Mark. Sent from Mail for Windows 10

I just had one of these hanging around and gave it a try and it worked!

Hello Mark, I never thought about that possibility. Now you have got me started thinking about it. Thanks for the idea and I will delve into it a little more. Appreciate the feedback. All for now, 73,

Hi Dennis, This plastic case was a “one-off” that was inspired by my own frustration with having to share my electronic shop with a wood and metal work shop with no separation between them. I’m

Allan, Your solution is elegant. By any chance, are you going to offer a case set for a fee? I too have been looking for a case for my morse tutor. But, I did not like the 3D printer versions. They

Great job! You might check to see if it will run on USB power. For some reason (and may have an older board but the form factor looks right), it runs fine on USB. 73 Mark AJ6CU

Hello All: I decided that I needed to put some plastic over the unit to keep the dust out and also to make the unit a little more ruggedized for my use around the shop, the car and the office. I

Hello Mark AA7TA, Thank you for your reply with all the details for using an ESP8266 module for an NTP clock. The instructions you posted look very straight forward. Regards, Ken, KM4NFQ "Not Fully

OK...here it is... Follow the steps in Bruce's write-up (http://w8bh.net/NTP_DualClock.pdf) with these changes: - In the IDE, add this URL to the Additional Boards Manager URLS list in Preferences:

On Amazon.com, 3 pieces of the ESP8266 cost $13.99 and one ESP32 costs $10.99, so yeah! https://www.amazon.com/HiLetgo-Internet-Development-Wireless-Micropython/dp/B081CSJV2V
