please update these files for the current kicad as it requires the files in .pro format now

RichNeese commented 2 weeks ago

Please add the kicad files so we can work on a board. would like to help make a 2m 6m version of this.

afarhan commented 2 weeks ago

The bitx2m was made ugly way, the pcb was never laid out. I will upload the schematic soon.

Ok well I have started on working code and a basic 2m 6m Arduino but I am looking to move to the pi pico as it will allow for more options in the future including a better lcd screen

I have started new code and building a new pico based Arduino si570 based … once I have the pico and lcd in hand I will post some basic. Pics

My question is python or c as I am doing this currently in python as I am not a c++ person and when done we should have good code. I can run it through a python to c++ converter if needed

Dont know if you have used the pico much but I have base code but need help finishing it out

Here is a C++ code snippet for the described VFO (Variable Frequency Oscillator) functionality using the Raspberry Pi Pico and the mentioned components. This code assumes the use of the Arduino framework for the Raspberry Pi Pico.

Prerequisites:

Install the necessary libraries for the OLED display, SI5351, and encoder. Wire the components according to the pins defined in the code. Libraries Required:

Adafruit_GFX Adafruit_SSD1306 SI5351 Encoder Sample Code:

uint32_t recallMemory(uint8_t index) { if (index < NUM_MEMORIES) { return memory[index]; } return 0; // Default return value if invalid index } Notes:

The code includes basic functionality for switching frequencies, modes, handling PTT, and displaying information on the OLED screen. The encoder, buttons, and other components should be wired according to the pin definitions in the code. Adjust the step sizes and add further functionality as needed to meet the specific requirements of your project. Add debounce handling and more robust state management for production use. Feel free to expand this code to incorporate additional features and improve functionality based on your project needs.
