Re: Calibrate S meter?
Yeah and make sure you do it with the attenuator at ZERO! THEN go ahead and calibrate the RX attenuation control. Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ

Re: Calibrate S meter?
*** Makes sense. That's actually what I figured :). I think such calibration would need to be per-band. - Jerry, KF6VB

Re: Calibrate S meter?
No. It is an approximation based on comparing S signals on commercial rigs with the T41 reading. At the time the S-meter was coded, its accuracy was pretty far down the list of things to do, so it was

Re: [AmateurRadioBuilders] Calibrate S meter?
Yeah¡­ we need a calibration procedure for this too¡­ Looks like you have volunteered Jerry! Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ Owner - Operator Big

Calibrate S meter?
I was just doing this for one of my other radios, and wondered: Is the S meter display on the T41 calibrated? S9 is defined as -73dBm, or 50 microvolts @ 50 ohms. I think I'll try it out with a signal

Re: [AmateurRadioBuilders] V12 RF Board
That is on the ¡°TO DO¡± list. Since this is an open/ community project¡­ I would ask that someone with a working radio¡­ please step up¡­ do this as a contribution to the project if¡­ people

Re: Excessive Noise
I¡¯ve never had noise from an on-board source, but that doesn¡¯t mean it couldn¡¯t happen. There is probably a solder bridge somewhere that is causing this¡­ but keep it simple¡­ to hone in on

Re: Excessive Noise
Should be 60db of attenuation

Re: Excessive Noise
Thanks Bill, that sounds like a plan.? I just finished hooking up my sig gen to one of the antenna with an output of -40dbm and 60dbm of attenuation, 7MHz AM, RF gain set at 0 and I could see and

Re: Excessive Noise
Mark¡­. You can unplug everything except the MAIN and RF boards (and the front panel and encoders) and the radio should work by just placing a receive antenna on the RX IN on the RF board. If you

Re: Excessive Noise
Hey Tim, Not yet.? I was tracing all the paths on the LPF control board to make sure I didn't have a problem with one of those 0179's.? I found a problem with the SWR xfmr in the tx path, so I fixed

Re: Initial RX calibration not working
Put it into receive calibration mode and check a few things: 1) Do you see clock signals at the expected frequency on the clock lines? 2) Do you see the receive calibration tone at the RF in SMA

Mark did that help I am trying to calibrate and all I see on spectrum scope is noise Changing frequency does not change spectrum or water fall. Tim

Re: Show and Tell Friday #1
Bill, how about alink to where this is on GitHub? Not building the T41, but this might be useful for some of my other projects. Also where to get the encoder? -- John P. WA2FZW
