FIRE - BREAK GLASS - I press the glass!

I wondered what it would be like to press the fire button. Quite uneventful as it turns out. The glass snaps right down the middle as intended. Here's how it was for me.

Arduino random Morse callsign generator
Просмотров 76510 лет назад
An Arduino (clone) generates some UK amateur radio callsigns from random prefixes and random letters. Then generates the Morse code for the callsign. Speed and spacing can be set in software, just needs programming. My code is not optimised and may not be done properly but it works as a concept at least. I haven't double-checked my programming of the Morse so there may be a letter or two that a...

      It is the serial model. I have hooked it up to a RPi before I think. Easiest way is to use a cheap usb to serial adaptor and also a serial cable, but can't remember the specifics. I havent used this in years, it's sat in the shed.

    I did see one mistake you made in regards to FT37-43. You wired it in backwards as the board pcb diagram was wrong according to the schematic. Would have been nice to see the T106-2 wiring. The video speed was so high even after reducing the speed via Utube. And a clear voice over as what you were doing. The varicaps are very cheap and will burnout with any high voltage across them. You can do a lookup but I would not recommend anything above 1watt. All in all I enjoyed the video even if it was going at the speed of light!

    i have just built one of theses and it works real well, i tested from 2mHz-30mHz, i couldnt get it down past 1:1.2 at 4mHz and divisables of 4 but evey thing else was spotless, some things to watch out when making it,#1. dont believe the size of the holes on the sticker, ie. the mounting screws on both pots are 6mm on the stickers(too big) and #2. the knobs on the pots are the wrong ones but i did what you did with washers and long screws, i also fitted SO239 along side of the bnc plugs, jus paralleled but plan out where the mounting screws go, but what fantastic value for money, it also shows how a "TOONER" works! THANK-YOU! big T/U+SUB.!.

    • @MeMyselfAndEyez
      @MeMyselfAndEyez 3 года назад

      The circuit for these must be closed all the time - like someone holding in a button on a doorbell making it ring indefinitely. (Safer that way - you'd know sooner if there was a fault!) When the button is held in, the circuit is closed. Once it's released, the alarm triggers - the panel at the other end realises something has broke the circuit. Above the glass on the model in this video is a small microswitch held in the "on" position, which flips to "off" if the glass breaks. Older models had a similar thing, but it was a button right in the middle of the glass which you could see - you didn't break the glass to press it, you broke the glass to let it spring out.

    Of course the SWR circuit is wrong. One lead of C1 goes to T1 (GND) but the other lead of C1 is wrong, please disconect it from T1. It should goes to the node R4 with D1 (catode). In this way, the SWR circuit should works lighting the led. Regards, EA4AON Javier.

For the price, I can't see how I could go wrong even with some flaky components. After all, I are a HAM! It'll be great with my uBITx-V6 and/or QCX transceivers. With care, even my soon to be IC-7300. TNX for posting your build. It'll be a good rainy-day project........ 73 OM

  • @Texas1FlyBoy
    @Texas1FlyBoy 4 года назад

    I recently assembled one of these. The build is horrible and took much longer than it should have. IMPORTANT FYI: The SWR circuit is labeled wrong on the PCB. It should be flipped around. Compare the schematic to the PCB. It is labeled wrong! Another reviewer noted to use 3 turns and 9 turns for more sensitive pickup (works with 100mW QRP transmitter). Yeah. This kit has horrible instructions and a PCB that is very badly designed. It's not a bad kit of parts - but LOTS of deficiencies on the build. I've already re-written the instructions, with much-needed construction tips, and am designing a new PCB to replace that crappy one. I'm also making a new front label (in English) and drilling guides.

    Thanks for posting the video of construction, but I feel that it was lacking in testing technique at the end. It would have been nice to share your testing with a rig. Perhaps if you join a radio club, you may be able to get some help testing the assembled kit. What rig were you proposing to use this with? I don't feel that your rating of the kit was justified. The kit would be used by an Intermediate level Radio ham with at least a 10 watt licence. You don't seem to have one.
