I think you mis-heard them. They were asking you to turn your mic gain down. ;-)

Hey everyone. I'm new here, and just about done with my U3S construction. It has been a fantastic and welcome distraction for me during this very crazy time. The part I thought of the construction

Well yeah… it’s kinda crazy to keep looking after you find it! ;>) Mike WM4B

I had previously removed the transformers from my receiver kit, and today did some tests to see if I might want to add them back in. My kit has two modifications: I've removed the transformers, and

I have a few, but most importantly, check on the batteries, i had a Simpson 260 that had the D Battery leak. I caught it JUST in time and they was no real damage. I read Jim’s post and when you

My "daily driver" is a Fluke 77 I bought, if I remember correctly, within a year or two after 1985. I moved to North Carolina in 1985, and I bought this at the Charlotte Hamfest. It

Hi All, It has been kinda dull here lately so would like to see what members have to say. At 10 watts if you had your choice would you choose a rig with CW and SSB, CW alone with SSB listening or CW

thanks Phil. I have about 15 RPi lurking, from the first B production run to the zero, zeroW, A, A+ and now a 4gb RPi4. I'll have a look at your github tomorrow. I have RPi3B+ running with

If you have a Raspberry Pi around, I just threw my code on GitHub: https://github.com/bitglue/libpisi5351 If you want a stand-alone solution, the VFO/Signal Generator kit is an option:

I have never, ever used the programming DIP switch. Used the serial input every time. Much quicker and you get a readout on the screen so you can see what you have done. I used an eight pin

Thankyou everyone who replied. It turned out to be a faulty USB Dongle. I think it was occasionally outputting a spike, no idea how, that was killing the serial input pin on the progrock. Replacing

OK, I've been playing with a Progrock today and I've worn out my fingers typing in repetitive frequencies over and over again to adjust for drift and signal requirements. Please, come the next

I'm a new ham with a life-long fascination with this hobby. I have only recently pursued the HF side. Here are my observations. Many thanks to Hans for the radio and this forum. It was great fun

Hi all I have had several enquiries about whether QRP Labs is operating and shipping normally during the global crisis we are all in. Yes, QRP Labs is operating normally. We are currently able to

Ok, I think I've managed to solve my problem (partially at least). For some reason the click was in my case caused directly by the mute mechanism (Q7). I've disconnected the mute completely by cutting

If you are going to the trouble to make an adapter board you can also make your own filter. Here is my air wound 160 filters. Rather than make an adapter board I just put antenna terminals on it.

Thanks Phill!
