Rene, have you contacted HFSignals? They have been pretty responsive here on the forum and they have an email address. =Vic=

Hello all, I came across this piece of history, and wanted to offer it up here for anyone interested. This is a uBitx that was shipped to me on 12/18/2017, I know that because the packing slip is

Fully set up sans tuner. Chris

With all due respect guys, the owner of the property was angry we had agreed to set it up at all. The fact that they drilled a hole in my wall, let me hide the antenna, and do this at all in a slum

I am far away from my test bench but someone here could try this.. Connect a volume control (or preset) to PIN 2 (center of pot) and one end to ground on LM386 and feed side tone to the top. This pot

I am playing with a 10K digital potentiometer to allow for an adjustable sidetone level. I have connected a 2.2K resistor from the wiper to ground to approximate an audio taper. Right now I am

Hey Christopher, Looking at the google maps view of your apartment complex, it looks like there are three nice tall trees on the south side of the building. A good way to get the antenna up would be

Hi, I updated the "nuvoprog" open source Nuvoton chip programmer to now be able to program the MS51FB9AE processor. The code is

It looks like you have tied the antenna next to existing wires. That is very likely going to cause a problem. You never want to couple RF into existing wiring if you can help it, and that is going

Yeah now get the actual dipole legs away from the building a bit otherwise it’s not gonna work too well.

Hello, Here are the results of the install. I believe this is a proper install. 20 meters dipole . I’m really happy they let me drill a hole in the wall. It’s filled with foam to seal it just like

That is true, If he/she should , one would hope the proper battery protection board is employed or commercial battery (usually has it) so generally they are protected against over discharge. Bite

And discharging them below their minimum voltage can severly impact their recharge lifetime.

Rene hang in there while you work these various challenges - those of us with a v3 or v4 experience more numerous challenges, I think. its part of the radio building experience. the list as well as

I vary my use based on power needs and operating time between charges. Using my Ft817 as an example its fairly power hungry on RX (.370-450ma) so even on the 8cell internal NiMh pack it s pretty well

Hi Laurent, As promised the wiring I used to fit a Sotabeams CW filter into the uBitX, mine is a Version 5 board. J1 is the connection on the board and a yellow wire comes from that and is soldered to

Interesting note here... if you use series varactor diodes to ground on the inner caps (that go to ground) and put variable voltage on the junction...you instantly have a variable pass-band control.

I always keep a couple of inexpensive ear phone extension cords with built in volume controls available from Amazon and EBay. Cheap, handy, and no mods. I just need another hand to control the

I have a friend who flies expensive drones and gives me his battery packs when they start showing trouble or bulging. Usually only one cell is going bad so after dissecting 3 or 4 packs I have all

I decided to make a choice. In a few hours the maintenance manager is going to come and drill a hole in the wall. I’m going to hang my dipole at about 40 feet. I’m going to hang a sign and addicts
