I was wondering how close those fires were. The rule here if if you smell the smoke its too close. Take care. Keep building! Allison

Hi Allison, I need to redeploy that antenna, I have the feed point at the same level as the far end and the wrong coax on it, so I know it's my fault it doesn't perform any better than it does. I

HI Again, Just PCB boards. I am still designing them, and awaiting a new callsign too, so, I am hopin in the next week or so to get all my current board designs finalised and then place and

Hello, do you know if you have possibly shipped my unit? Kevin Rea

Nick, would like to obtain 2-3 of your AGC PCB boards. If you are planning a kit with parts, I can wait for that too. - Rich WB2GXM

Thanks all for sugestions.... Rich, This one is the same as Kees' in operation: RF I was also wotking on an AF (VK3YE board) version for those who would prefer that... 73 Nick.

Nick, it is my understanding that Kees' AGC kit works of the RF (IF) stage, whereas your kit works off the audio stage? Thanks - Rich WB2GXM

Chuck, I'd ague against more than an octave for another reason, pattern. That and for 12, 10M and 6M up antennas get small enough there are a a whole other set possible improvements. I'd think if

Yes same problem here. Philip.

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to say thank you to everyone involved. My BFO was set to 11.995.250. If I went 1 kHz away people were loud by tinny. If I went on frequency, they were

I also "cheated", using Jim W0EB's breakout boards for the sockets and encoder. They're silkscreened with labels for tip, ring, sleeve, so I didn't wire it to "pin 2", I wired it to what is marked as

Joel, Try changing the length of the coax on the PAR. Something like 5FT can change that. For cases Allied Electronics too. They stock a lot of the Hammond products. Allison

Mike, I agree with everybody else that your getting RF back down the feed line, it happens bad on my Par EFHW on 20 meters. Thanks for unwittingly giving me a tip on where to buy my case for my uBitx,

I added a file/photo showing the reversed side mounting pins for nano

Forgot one... Painted box, did you clear the pat at the coax connector and use the star washer? Same for the board mounting standoffs, All of them. Allison

Mike KK7ER, What form of end fed 1:9 with random wire very bad without counterpoise. Or resonant half wave (swr under 1.7:1). FYI if not low at the desired frequency read the manual and tune

Add in 6b : modify the raduino vanilla software to use kd8cec memory manager and get the settings -so you can put these settings in your other nano with the kd8cec software neesing very few

You said you are using the coax shield as the counterpoise? RF pickup on all bands or all bands? Try changing the length of the LW + or - and use a 1/4λ counterpoise connected to the case.

Warren, I it was soemthing easy to try but I'd call it the same as you. Lots of harmonics in square waves and little filtering. At frequencies below 20MHz the filters at the amp output are the

The signal at TP1, the output of the first mixer is a pure square wave as it is derived directly from the Si5351 in CW mode. The signal in SSB mode is much closer to a sine wave as it is a mix of the
