Modification/fork of the KD8CEC firmware. This is not a fancy customization like the previous uBITX V5D firmware... this is just taking advantage of the fact that I'm using the Nextion display.

#IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • 0.30 Version Test only download. almost complete
  • Beta 0.26 and Beta 0.261, Beta 0.262,0.27 is complete test, 0.28 is tested.
  • You can download and use it (Release section).

Current work list (for Version 0.31)

1 Testing CAT Control with Software using hamlib on Linux

#NOTICE

I received uBITX a month ago and found that many features are required, and began coding with the idea of implementing minimal functionality as a general hf transceiver rather than an experimental device.

  • fixed bugs...
  • Diallock for uBITX's sensitive encoders
  • built in softare Memory keyer and cw options control for CW communication
  • Implementation of CAT communication protocol for Digital Communication (as FT8, JT65, etc)
  • Delay Options for external Linear.
  • and more...

Most of the basic functions of the HF transceiver I thought were implemented. The minimum basic specification for uBITX to operate as a radio, I think it is finished. So I will release the 0.27 version and if I do not see the bug anymore, I will try to change the version name to 1.0. Now uBITX is an HF radio and will be able to join you in your happy hams life. Based on this source, you can use it by adding functions.

I am going to do a new project based on this source, linking with WSPR, WSJT-X and so on. Of course, this repository is still running. If you have any bugs or ideas, please feel free to email me.

KD8CEC

Prepared or finished tasks for the next version

  • Most of them are implemented and included in version 0.27.
  • User Interface on LCD -> Option by user (not need)
  • Include WSPR Beacone function - (implement other new repository) complete experiment need solve : Big code size (over 100%, then remove some functions for experment) need replace Si5351 Library (increase risk and need more beta tester) W3PM sent me his wonderful source - using BITX, GPS

REVISION RECORD

0.30

  • implemented the function to monitor the value of all analog inputs. This allows you to monitor the status of the CW keys connected to your uBITX.
  • possible to set the ADC range for CW Keying. If no setting is made, it will have the same range as the original code. If you set the CW Keying ADC Values using uBITX Manager 0.3, you can reduce the key error.
  • Added the function to select Straight Key, IAMBICA, IAMBICB key from the menu.
  • default Band select is Ham Band mode, if you want common type, long press function key at band select menu, uBITX Manager can be used to modify frequencies to suit your country.

0.29

  • Remove the use of initialization values in BFO settings - using crruent value, if factory reset
  • Select Tune Step, default 0, 20, 50, 100, 200, Use the uBITX Manager to set the steps value you want. You can select Step by pressing and holding the Function Key (1sec ~ 2sec).
  • Modify Dial Lock Function, Press the Function key for more than 3 seconds to toggle dial lock.
  • created a new frequency tune method. remove original source codes, Threshold has been applied to reduce malfunction. checked the continuity of the user operating to make natural tune possible.
  • stabilize and remove many warning messages - by Pullrequest and merge
  • Changed cw keying method. removed the original code and applied Ron's code and Improved compatibility with original hardware and CAT commnication. It can be used without modification of hardware.

0.28

  • Fixed CAT problem with hamlib on Linux
  • restore Protocol autorecovery logic

0.27 (First alpha test version, This will be renamed to the major version 1.0)

  • Dual VFO Dial Lock (vfoA Dial lock)
  • Support Ham band on uBITX default Hamband is regeion1 but customize by uBITX Manager Software
  • Advanced ham band options (Tx control) for use in all countries. You can adjust it yourself.
  • Convenience of band movement

0.26

  • only Beta tester released & source code share
  • find a bug on none initial eeprom uBITX - Fixed (Check -> initialized & compatible original source code)
  • change the version number 0.26 -> 0.27
  • Prevent overflow bugs
  • bug with linux based Hamlib (raspberry pi), It was perfect for the 0.224 version, but there was a problem for the 0.25 version.
    On Windows, ham deluxe, wsjt-x, jt65-hf, and fldigi were successfully run. Problem with Raspberry pi.

0.25

0.24

  • Program optimization reduce usage ram rate (string with M() optins)
  • Optimized CAT protocol for wsjt-x, fldigi

0.23

  • added delay_background() , replace almost delay() to delay_background for prevent timeout

  • cat library compatible with FT-817 Command switch VFOA / VFOB, Read Write CW Speed Read Write CW Delay Time Read Write CW Pitch (with sidetone) All of these can be controlled by Hamradio deluxe.

  • modified cat libray function for protocol for CAT communication is not broken in CW or TX mode

  • Ability to change CW Delay

  • Added Dial Lock function

  • Add functions CW Start dely (TX -> CW interval)

  • Automatic storage of VFO frequency It was implemented by storing it only once when the frequency stays 10 seconds or more after the change. (protect eeprom life)

0.22

  • fixed screen Update Problem
  • Frequency Display Problem - Problems occur below 1Mhz
  • added function Enhanced CAT communication
  • replace ubitx_cat.ino to cat_libs.ino
  • Save mode when switching to VFOA / VFOB

0.21

  • fixed the cw side tone configuration.
  • Fix the error that the frequency is over.
  • fixed frequency display (alignment, point)

0.20

  • original uBITX software (Ashhar Farhan)
