You haven’t mentioned what could be done after dark. There are lots of options for putting up wires, radials, etc., after dark and removing them after the fun is done. Radials laid on the floor of you

Hi Bill, Will have to check that with a keyer. I thought the CEC firmware had that fixed without extra resistors. Two other folks advised the resistors and supplied the diagram. It works fine on cw an

I am a newbie to the uBitX but have been following this group for a few years. I was able to pick up a uBitX v3 with the touch screen and CEC v 1.1 installed while at HamCation this winter. It works w

I have a friend who flies expensive drones and gives me his battery packs when they start showing trouble or bulging. Usually only one cell is going bad so after dissecting 3 or 4 packs I have all the

To pay it back, study, learn all you can, rub shoulders with other Elmers, and don’t be afraid to tell about your mistakes. Then when you find other like minded new hams introduce yourself and make yo

I am on the 3rd floor of a 4 story condo and find that the steel in the floor and ceiling of our deck plus the screen (stucco) in the sides of the building reduce my signal significantly. So hope you

I don’t trust the stick on rubber feet so I use a drop of super glue gel on each one I install. I do the same with those stick on pads you put on the bottom of the feet of chairs to keep them from scr

I recently purchased (at HamCation) a uBitX ver 3 upgraded to the CEC ver 1.1 and the 2.8 Nextion screen. It is my first experience with a working uBitX but this one only transmits in straight key mod

I thought I had looked at all those links when I started down this rabbit hole a few years ago. Sorry, my wife (my right seat pilot) doesn’t look over my shoulder when I am reading ham radio emails. T

How come I never saw any reference to this site before and I have read all the uBitx emails and joined github just to keep up for the day I would finally get the courage to jump in and tinker with one

This item and the replies are very interesting. My experience with most kits is that I get extra parts, especially nuts and bolts. They go to my junque box. Also if your children or grand children eve

Also make sure that you are talking DIRECTLY to the hotel you want to stay at, not some other booking agency. Recently we went through Booking.com (because their site came up first) and when we got to
