Now the readings looks normal!

Jerry, Looks the L and C formed a series resonant circuit at the transmitted frequency. Raj

Thats not OK.. your rx will not work! Switch off power and check the contact continuity as per table I sent you!

Possible. Do we know what the transmitted frequency was? Was it 40m? I figure the series loop of L3,C6,C7,C5 to be resonant at 7.45mhz, C-total-in-pf = 1/(1/1000 + 1/470 + 1/100) = 76pf

Thanks Jack. I missed that one. It still doesn't show me the exact location of my project. The problem is only I open more than one project at a time for comparison. From now on when I download a

Thanks Ron. Never too old to learn something new. And be embarrassed that it was in my face. -- 73, Yvon NU6I

Thank you for answers. I have a lot of good germanium detector diodes D9B (full analogue of 1N34A). At evening i try to built a RF probe and measure output power. Also i try to check toroid trifillar

Or use a socket for the LM386 Or get a cheap AF amplifier from bangood

Yep I think I did it. I applied reverse polarity to my BITX40 from HFSignals. The power to the board was connected but no power to the PA. (The connector I used had the positive connected to the

Amici curiae will tell you that probably nothing happened. You would have had a smoking gun: D7 - in B40 that part dies first, so please check if it has fried and then the rest.. What was the power

I agree on changing to Allard's code. It is a wonderful improvement to all aspects of the BitX40 and works even without any hardware mods. Loading a new sketch is easy. I had no experience with

Thank all of you for the information. 73 -- Dave Robertson KD1NA

Announding the RadI2Cino (prounounced "Rad ee too CEE no", an almost "Drop In" replacement for the original uBITX Raduino card. The attached PDF file contains the complete information on it but here

I HAVE always wondered why, guys that do pcb layouts the dont add slightly longer pads with thru holes to dually accomodate smd 0805 OR 1/8 was resistors and 5 mm caps. dave N4LKN.

I ordered one of these: https://www.hammfg.com/part/1402D I'm hoping I can work with the height of the Raduino OK. John KC9OJV

For the uBitx

Hi OM. I have re-worked on my lib for the Si5351, I have a few new features in there, if you like to peek you can check the code in github https://github.com/pavelmc/Si5351mcu

6" x 6" is what it needs (for a very very tight fit). At least 2-1/2" inches if you are on standoffs. The stand-offs are 1/2 inch, the display is another 1-3/4 inch above the PCB.

Ran : does rx mean receive, if it does? The radio has been reviveing the last four weeks very good hearing stations all over the world. 73’s de AC8XZ

Art, Just got off the phone with a DHL rep who said DHL will deliver here, not USPS. Your mileage may vary. The package is on the move again this morning! :-) 73, Steve
