Hi Hans, Left a blank frame at the end of 5 bands with Park Mode set at #2 and frequency at 150.000.000 and so far all zeros on all bands. Will see how it plays out overnight and tomorrow. Many thanks

Hi all, Have been working on getting zero drift and frequency stability on one of my U3S units. So far... - Added a small heat sink on top of the 27 mhz xtal - Packed the area around the xtal between

Thanks Hans...I redid the order of tx as you said and used park mode 2 @ 150 Mhz plus the small heat sink and all I see is zeros ( just like my bank account) LOL! So success as it also removed the sma

Frequency Stability
Hi all, I have been trying to reduce the drift on my wspr tx when running 5-6 bands. I seem to be able to get one band with zero drift and the next band in sequence has some drift. See the data for 20

U3S transmitting- how to troubleshoot
your dial frequency does not fall in the RX window for wspr...7.040.150...you have to add 1500 or so hz to account for the wspr TX offset for receive.

3.12a firmware
I just noticed that when I press the right button on the U3S it does not key the transmit like 3.10a did…do I have something set wrong? Vernon

5 Watt PA
Hi all, I now have the V3.12 controller chip set up and working in my U3S. I have the 5 watt PA built with full assembly. My question is if I leave the PTT and the Cosine Shaping in a non-active state

5 watt amp kit - no output ( UPDATE )
Hi guys, Just to let you know that the reason there is no output is that I have the incorrect version firmware in my U3S. I was planning on building the simplified kit so didn't order the version 3.12

5 watt amp kit - no output
Hi all, I just completed the 5 watt amp kit and fired it up...glad to report no smoke but also no output. Turning the bias wide open did not do anything...I set the U3S at around 250mW before removing
