I use the Easy-Digi with a USB to Serial adapter and it works well. You can order them already built to work with any radio I think with the USB interface built in. I used the built board and added my

I would like to set up Winlink with my v6 and am confused about the module to use. Would this Easy-Digi work?: https://www.ebay.com/itm/221668996763 Since the ubitx does have VOX, I assume the PTT is

Aaron, Open the pdf in this message: https://groups.io/g/BITX20/message/80833 The common problem that I see is that the setup is for a physical port to trigger the PTT, and that the data and stop bits

Ok here is a copy and paste of the entry in my notebook. I hope that it includes everything that I have done and someone can spot where I am messing up at. 02 September 2020- Having difficulty setting

Aaron, The KD8CEC software was a very popular update for all of the pre v6 uBITX. It provided a lot more functionality than the original software, fixed some of the perceived shortcomings, and was exp

Quick non-topic question. What is the KD8CEC software and how does it compare to the default and Reeds?

#digital #ubitxv6

Aaron, I am sorry that you are having soo much trouble. It really was not an issue for me using a v4 or v5 and the KD8CEC software. Critical steps that I used. 1 - verify the com port through the Wind

So far I have not had anything but trouble. So I am going to get me a notebook and record everything as I start from scratch. I have a gut feeling that it will be a simple setting somewhere. I will le

Hi Aaron, I haven't had any trouble with the CAT, so I'm sorry to hear it's not going as smoothly for you. The first thing I'd recommend checking is whether or not you have the correct port, since non

Some users selected FT-857 rather than FT-817.

Everything I try on changing the settings in the Test CAT I get a popup that says "Rig Failure Hamlib error: IO error while opening the connection to the rig" Can this work without the CAT Control? I

#digital #ubitxv6

Aaron, That usually means one of two things: 1 - verify that the CAT connection is working by using the Test CAT button, then the Test PTT. 2 - The audio in and audio out are not configured properly.

Sorry for the late reply. I had to reinstall Windows and it has been quite the adventure. I loaded up Reeds firmware on my uBitX V6. I then followed the instructions in the uBiTX v6 Manual R1.5.1 as f

I use the UBITX V5 for the digital Pactor operating mode. The properties of this mode of operation do not allow a connection to be unwound properly. The processing of the PTT via Arduino is too slow.

Here is a PDF of the Radio and Audio screens that I use for FT8 on the uBITX. This is with the Sabrent USB audio dongle on Windows 10. As I stated earlier, I am using isolation audio transformers to r

Aaron, I would suggest that you start with FT8 protocol on one of the US frequencies: 80m 3.573 40m 7.074 20m 14.074 From the picture, it looks like you are on the JT8Call frequency, which I have foun

If you unplug the USB audio dongle, do you still see the one audio device in the WSJT-X? When I plug the dongle into my pc, if see an additional audio input device, the inbuilt audio card and the usb

I've made plenty of digital contacts with basically the original sketch from HFsignals or else Allar'ds upgrade. There is little difference between one radio and another. You must be able to make basi

Hi Aaron, There a good amount of overlap, so you might still find the CAT section useful. A few sanity checks: 1) if you unplug the audio cable from the radio, do you hear the signals you're hoping to
