Not that it’s relevant in this use case, but these are exactly the type of bug that result in the dreaded “buffer overrun” security flaws you read about on the news. It’s C. I never trust anything abo

Well, that’s a bit aggressive isn’t it? The uBitX is a radio to be hacked on and tweaked, it’s not an appliance. It’s no surprise that there will be updates over time. Nothing was “rushed for the mone

What version of Arduino? I saw some people note that older versions didn’t compile it correctly. Make sure you have the correct board selected: Arduino Nano. -Mark

Great news. When I get a moment, I’ll reflash from Farhan’s master branch. Looking forward to it! -Mark

Oh sure, go all precise and site reference documentation on me. ;-) Yeah, alright. I trust that the code is doing the right thing. I still contend that you’re relying on some subtle definitions of the

And by “some drift,” he means A LOT of drift. I basically have to constantly tweak the tuning knob. I like your idea of a frequency counter on the VFO. Even if it’s an analog VFO, at least knowing how

i think I figured out what your code is doing. I request a bit of documentation around the minimum magnitude stuff. It’s not immediately obvious why you want the minimum value over the last 600ms. Thi

https://github.com/reedbn/ubitxv6/blob/knob-acceleration/encoder.cpp#L101 Using sizeof(momentum) worries me. It’s unclear whether that returns the size of the pointer that “momentum” is, or whether it

#ubitx #v6

Yep! I still have my very first BitX40 configured with the analog VFO. It’s drifty as all heck, but it’s still one of my favorite radios to use. I HIGHLY recommend getting a 10-Turn pot for the tuning

Mine has definitely been modified because it’s supposed to only connect the mic not the speaker. UBitX is a 3 pin mic connector, but the BaoFengs by default are 4 pin, adding a pin for the speaker. Bu

Yep. The whole “testing testing, Kr6zy, haaaaaaallooooo” routine. Doesn’t even twitch the power meter.

I hope I’ll have an opportunity to look at this, but I’m headed into knee surgery soon and my priorities are shifting around a bit. :-/ -Mark

#ubitx #v6

Can someone tell me how their hand mic is wired, the one provided with the uBitX v6? It looks like the speaker is in series with the ground wire on mine, and I'm trying to figure out if that's expecte

I'm not entirely sure which you meant, so let me answer the question you MIGHT have been asking in case others are similarly confused. :-) Does it work with the existing encoder wheel hardware? Yes. N

Here's my fork of your code with my changes applied: https://github.com/SmittyHalibut/ubitxv6/tree/pdq_gfx_update In whole, the goal was to improve the responsiveness of the UI, and I think the combin

Good call. It’s just a contact closure so you could do both in parallel if you wanted. :-)

I’m having similar symptoms on mine: CW transmits fine, I can read power on my meter and a WebSDR heard my beeping. But SSB appears not to be transmitting anything. My local “other radio” hears audio,

I’m on vacation right now, but when I get back, I’d be happy to share a branch I made to support interrupt driven encoder wheel. Rather than calling read_enc() and waiting around 200ms or whatever it

They come in 3s, yes. Any multiple of three is a valid order quantity. This is an artifact of how they manufacture the boards. These boards are small enough and hence cheap enough it hopefully won’t b

I’ll add my design to the pile of other great (possibly better) options: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/UgGbx3qS Note that mine is only good for QRP power levels, or a receiver. -Mark
