No SSB output


 

PTT working, it goes into TX and amps increase, relays click.
I2C checked out on all but BPF which I am using 3rd party BCD to control.
Audio hat works fine for RX.

Are you certain that your PTT button is working? You should hear relays click when you press it. If the PTT button is working, then a lack of signals out of the audio hat implies that the hat is not working for some reason. I'm assuming that the I2C connection to the audio hat did not have a fault on the BIT screen at boot?

Yes they are. Step through the circuit starting at the audio hat. Do you see the 750 Hz audio tone on the I and Q outputs of the audio hat? Then, walk through the transmit chain on the RF board and find where the signal disappears.

Is the 750hz and 2 tone frequencies generated in Audio Hat?
Still mucking around trying figure out why no carrier in SSB mode.

If you take the Mic wires off the pins on the hat and just place your finger on Hat PIN 4 and key the radio, you will see a 60 cycle pattern in the display and hear that in the transmitted signal.? If not, there is something up with either the firmware, a selection in the menu (try a different EQ), or the hat itself.

I have output in CW mode, but 0 in SSB.

Even doing TX IQ with 750hz tone or 2 tone TX 0 output.

FW is the 66.9?
