Colin,

I was completely wrong about there being a download manager for Win 10.
Microsoft has changed to a service model from a subscription model and
now you have no control over what updates get installed and what don't
get installed other than not be connected to the internet. My
understanding it that this was done so all extant Win 10 installations
are the same instead of there being millions of different installations.

Does anyone else have information about how MS is

I will but it might be a few days before the BITX is wired and tested.

Colin,

 

I am interested in the HI-PER-MITE audio CW filter.

Are you using an additional audio filter for CW? I have a Hypermite I plan to wire in.

No thanks, I like that my uBITX is small and don't have any need for a lager screen nor do I want to change enclosures.  Right now I'm having a blst with it on CW.  SSB on the uBITX is not important to me - that's what my K3, KPA500 and 2 element Quad are for lol.

Sometimes if you are not using a Profilic (probably spelled way wrong) original driver but a 3 rd party driver, you have to delete the driver and install the 3rd party driver.  This seems to happen to many almost  every time win 10 updates.

This may explain it.

A few days ago my Windows 10 installation got updated, without asking me, of course.  I stepped away from the computer for a while and when
I came back updates were being installed.

I think my USB port drivers were changed.  When I try to run the KD8CEC Memory Manager or to upload a newly compiled  ubitx_20 version
I do not see the COM4 port any more. The Windows Device Manger shows an "Unusable Parallel Port (LPT3) where I previously saw a COM4
Serial Port.

Does anyone know what happened or how to undo it?

Mike,

This is to error correct extreme values that may be set by the user.
If the value is between 100 and 2000 it does nothing!

I think I see what is going on.  For example, in initSettings(), the sidetone value is getting read from the EEPROM:

EEPROM.get(CW_SIDETONE, sideTone);
 
But later on, it is getting overwritten if the value is not "sane":

if (sideTone < 100 || 2000 < sideTone)
  sideTone = 800;
 
So that explains why uBITX Manager is showing bogus values and yet normal values show up on the LCD.
