Re: Funtronics uBitx digi interface installation in V6
On the drawing in the video it shows the Raduino Pin #3 as +5vdc, but the main schematic it shows Raduino01 Jack#3 as blank and Jack#4 as +12vdc (no +5v on the Raduino01 jack). Do you know where I can

Re: Has anyone Calibrated the uBITx v5 with a frequency counter?
Bob,
The values are stored when you press the putt switch. You then need to power cycle the radio/Nano (unplug the Nano from any attached USB connection). It should then save the new setting.

Me too Reed.
Also I eventually swapped back to your firmware. I really like how it is laid out on the main screen.

Re: Has anyone Calibrated the uBITx v5 with a frequency counter?
The easiest thing is to simply measure the actual frequency put out by the crystal, and then adjust the software to expect that frequency.
In most of Ashers code you can find the presumed crystal

Re: Nextion 4.3" Firmware?
Steve,
Glad it was a simple fix.
The firmware will not allow you to change the TX frequency while transmitting. The reason it is in transmit mode is the pull-up resistor is missing on the digital

I would suggest that you start a new topic and not hijack Bob's topic for your problem. You will also need to provide more information about the AGC add on that you purchased, as there are

Re: Nextion 4.3" Firmware?
It's working Evan !
Strange. New SD Cards are already formatted. Small sizes are FAT32, like my 16GB ones. BUT I just reformatted one of them and put the PD5DJ 4.3" version (Same as CEC) on the blank

Without modulation please measure the voltages on Q13/14/15 and lets seeif we find
