Re: V6 TX on 15 and 20 meters
RF problems.
Try a quarter wave piece(s) of wire for the bands where you suffer interference connected to the cabinet.
An old but useful trick

Re: V6 TX on 15 and 20 meters
End fed dipole should be good for HF plus 6M but some things have to be done to make it so. Here's the one at my location that I use mostly on 60M and 17M but while it seems to load on 160M, it is not

Re: Simple UBITX Test Set
All the RF sections of the receiver except the demodulator could be
checked out by driving the BFO from CLK#0 into the antenna jack.
Need a pretty serious attenuator, of course.

Re: Simple UBITX Test Set
Jim,
A few posts back I was suggesting that we make use of
the Raduino's Nano to drive an Si5351 on the test set board for use as a signal source.
A 4th output allows the rig to remain operational,

Re: Simple UBITX Test Set
Bob,
you have to use the tuning knob to scroll through the menu, set the center freq and span.
then highlight plot and press the encoder knob to start the plot. In the older version it a
single scan

Jerry,
Thanks for pointing those out. I just ordered some for my parts supply. Looks like the price is a 50% off promo price.
For just a little more in shipping, less Than $0.50, it can ship Banggood

This looks very interesting. One specification was not shown, however. In the Antuino write-up, you show it reading the SWR but also shown is the frequency readout. It then acts as a frequency

Except for the dummy load, the Antuino is really all you need to align any HF radio set. It can be used to test any radio well into UHF range as
