Thanks for that info, Jim. I was wondering how it was done, didn't seem to be a pc layout for a socket on the board. I was waiting for board to arrive to confirm. The toroids I ordered from Diz have a

Hi Jim, Thank you. My boards have arrived in ZL2 land. Cheers Will ZL1TAO

Hi All, Jim, I think those meters only read down to 3 volts on the power line when self powered. If separately powered then they probably read down to zero. Cheers Will ZL1TAO

Hi, That chip is only(?) used for the usb interface so it should have no effect on the main ATmega328. Cheers Will ZL1TAO

HI Folks, It was noted on some other forum that some of the "other" type of DDS were fitted with 3.3 volt oscillators and they ran (O.K.) but hot on 5 volts. I had several of the other DDS and one was

OH ****** I am still waiting for 5.1v zener (and other bits) to come. I had 5.6v on hand. Never mind I might have better luck next time. No reflection on you Jim. Cheers Will ZL1TAO

What you have to look out for is: is it a 3.3v clock can? Some are 5 volt and some are 3.3v, I bought five in one batch (the "other" version) and had 2 clearly marked 3.3 volt, the rest were marked 5

Hi, Just a query. Was reading the instructions in Builders Alert, item 3, instructions 2 & 3. Instruction 2 is "insert long pins of header into Uno." Instruction 3 is "insert long pins into bottom of

You are lucky! When I try to access the group files or photos I just get blocked. Just blame YAHOO Cheers Will ZL1TAO

Hi All, Put a proper title in this time, sorry for before. O.K. with the correction. I was looking at using some extended headers so that I could put another shield, LCD + keys, on top so that I could

Hi Jim and the group. I just want to make a comment on the poll option 3 (from memory) I don't agree that the price is extortionate as Jim put it in the poll when you said that you didn't want. As it

Jay, It always used to be Fortran Fortifies the over Forties when people I knew were using it, back in the 80's I am afraid that C++ with its "shortcuts" which might be as easy as for a person working

Hi Folks, I noticed this while browsing. http://www.trademe.co.nz/electronics-photography/radio-equipment/amateur-radio/auction-686145249.htm The price in Kiwi $ is $20 that's about US$25 for just a P

OOOPPS So used to converting US$ to Kiwi$ forgot its going other way. Cheers Will ZL1TAO

Hi Folks, Just had a massive earthquake here. We survived, all other kiwi's on list O.K.? Cheers Will ZL1TAO

Hi Jim, I'll take set. All smt front end power meter, and "other - blue trimmer" PHSNA with Era3+. I'm also interested in Larry, W2HHV idea of extra shield to take another dds board for I/Q use. I mig

Hi, You normally have a folder that has ALL your sketches in various sub-folders. the Arduino IDE requires each one be in a sub-folder. You normally have your not stock Arduino libraries in the folder

Hi All, I had a thought, (Dangerous, I know. Hope the noise of it didn't keep any of the other ZL's awake). Are some of the problems with measurements due to mains hum getting into the Powermeter or P

If I understand correctly it is the layout of the DDs rather than the chip. The type II have a little blue trimpot on them and the pins are along the sides. Type I have a single row of pins at one end

Hi all, My boards seem O.K. I plan to use two of the MK II boards with a nano or pro mini to produce I & Q frequencies for a receiver. I had bought the DDS and Nano & pro mini but was still learning m
