More has to do with whether or not there is arcing in that particular powerline. If there is, you can be an eighth of a mile away and still have tremendous interference. if there isn’t, you should

100-ft should not be a problem. My antenna is about 30-ft or so from power lines feeding houses on my street and it has very little effect on received QRN, etc. But no two installations act exactly

Works perfectly thanks for the info and the link to the TFT file/download locally. Anyone else having issues downloading from the ubitx.net site. When I try and download I get server restriction on

My dipole antenna is aroin 30 tpb40 ft but at elevated location on top of 3rd floor. I am working reasonably well. Sarma vu3zmv

Hola, he subido un pequeño documento PDF con la descripción del proyecto. https://github.com/ramonlh/ubitx32/tree/master/doc El estado actual es que las funciones básicas están en funcionamiento.

Ok I’ll try to get the antenna up higher, I’ll need to get a telescoping mast first though before I can try that, I’ll probably be ordering one soon

I do the antenna set up parallel to the power lines, but they are over 100 feet away, I don’t know if that would still cause a problem?

Hey Markus, I am the "friend" that Vic is referring to. I have made CW contacts on all but the 15 meter band with my V6. I am presently using a keyer (a Pico Keyer that I built). You must, as Vic

Hello Markus. Yes, my friend has been able to use his V6 on CW now and while not a perfect CW radio, it does work. Your issue sounds like you may have the plug wired incorrectly or need to select the

Aaron, I believe that the v6 comes with the Iambic keyer enabled. In the setup menu, there should be an option to set it to a straight key. Try that and see if it works. NOTE: I do not have a v6, so

The keyer's output should look like a simple straight key to the V6. You should be able to just run a cable to the key input from the keyer's output. If this does not work, then you may need to get

I'm having a little issue hooking up a keyer to the uBITX and I'm pretty sure I'm either missing something or doing something wrong. When I plug in the keyer of just the cable to the keyer and put the

If you don't want to make a cable with the power connector, most big truck stops carry a cable designed to go from a cigarette lighter jack to a small TV, etc. Just check to make sure the center

belthur, One other thought, The RF could be coming in through the mic cord. A snap-on ferrite and 0.01 uF bypass caps on the input to the ubitx could help if that is the issue. 73 Evan AC9TU

Are you amplifying the mic at all? Do you have another receiver that can be used to verify the output of the ubitx? The only way to be sure is to measure the output. What I have done is build a -50

Checked. CW is just fine. How do I avoid audio overdrive?

Thanks. No, my uBitx case isnt grounded. I will fix that. I will also try a Balun. Thanks.
