Does this make the uBITX an independent SDR device? If so, what SDR software and what settings do you use? Also, does it allow monitoring of different bands or segments of the same band?

Thanks Bill. I have the v.6. I will look for Reed’s software. I assume it is in the group File directories

Has anyone found how to get rid of that little lag of about a second when you first key down? It is the one thing that has kept me from using my radio (and that I can’t find the mic).

The creator of the BitX series of radios explained that it is a radio for hackers. What other HF radio is out there for the same price. I have been searching. ;-)

Does the code upgrade address the TX/RX switching time delay? This seems to make paddle use a little difficult

It will re-acquaint you with the Smith Chart, something you have always wanted :-) I got one because it measures VHF/UHF SWR. I have other SWR meters for HF. I will learn about +/-j and Smith charts n

Thanks Bill. This is helpful. I’ll keep my eye out and also ask my NOGA QRP members if someone has one laying around

My v6 is really noisy. Are there any instructions on how to adjust RX to reduce the ‘hash’. I tried the radio out during this weekend’s contests, comparing the receive to that of my Omni 6 and the uBI

Dave, I’ll have to find out how to change that setting

In my case, using a dual paddle, it takes about a second for the initial dit or dah. After that operation os OK as long as you maintain your rhythm. If your pause is too long, the next dit or dah is d

Thanks to all. I was able to update the ubitx with my Mac. I changed the usb connection from the mac and connected it direct to the Raduino card. Again, thanks to all. Now to work on the filters to se

Anyone know how to overcome the EEPROM.put (CW_KEY_TYPE_temp_key) error that keeps coming up in my ubitxv6 compile?

Farhan produced these radios for experimenters. We learn a lot trying to get them where we want. I have one that won’t word, one working for which I need a good case, and a v6 that I can’t get the ske

#bitx40help

Can you add a little more about uploading the sketch? For example: does one have to separately add the libraries like EEPROM, wire and the other #includes?

Don, I agree with you. I have been trying to reload the Arduino sketch from Windows, Linux, raspberry pi, and MacOS and have not been successful with any. Strange thing, is that the errors I get on th

Farhan has said that his radios are for experimenters. I just got a v6, still having a 20 and two others in various stages of undress next to my work bench. Now I am interested in v6 but seeing the po
