Thanks - a good suggestion I will put my oscilloscope on the clock lines of both boards and then try the fequencies you suggest - will post soon to say how it goes. 73 Dave GM4NFI

Re: Excessive Noise
Mark, just remember, for troubleshooting¡ all you need is the Main board, the RF board, and the display¡ you can take everything else out of the chain (eg RX antenna straight to the RF-in on the

Re: SMD Stencil/Reflow solution?
I have used the Atlas LCR for years to sort SMD parts. You can get Tweezer probes off Amazon (I think) and adapt to any LCR meter. Tim W4YN

Hey yall, I've built my boards and have them all hooked up.? I've started with receiver checkout, and unlike my V11 which was amazing !, I have a lot of noise, specially on 40M.? I'm not in an ideal

The two boards have a different clock speed (84 vs 72MHz).? It appears the spi frequency for the board can't be set to the 36MHz as is being done at the bottom of Setup32_ILI9341_STM32F103.h. Try

Re: T41 receive attenuator working?
The primary RF board (that is the Primary RX and TX) should be set to 0x27 which means that the three address lines A0, A1, and A2 should be set to ¡°111¡± or no shorted jumpers (J15, J16, J17). Dr.

Re: T41 receive attenuator working?
Bill's right: you do not have the correct address for the MCP23017 chip. The I2C address is set by JP15, JP16 and JP17. The command "#define RF_MCP23017_ADDR" sets the address that the code looks for
