## Pjt CWTRX
|
||||
|
||||
low-power portable (70cm) CW transceiver, for short range contacts
|
||||
|
||||
### general features
|
||||
|
||||
- supply 5..12 V, optimized for 5 V (USB)
|
||||
- power save mode with electronic squelch
|
||||
- beacon mode: call sign transmission unless squelch open, pause
|
||||
- 1 direct memory DM, 2 working memories A and Z, 2 shadow memories + and - (each containing freq, power and squelch levels)
|
||||
- callsign memory for beacon operation
|
||||
- system status and memories retained during power off: 6 times (1 byte power level + 1 byte squelch level + 3 byte freq offset in Hz + 1 byte status) = 36 bytes, plus 25 bytes for call sign
|
||||
|
||||
### RF section
|
||||
|
||||
- TRX freq range at least 432000..432400 kHz, up to 438000 if possible; may be reduced for manual and automatic scans
|
||||
- antenna: dedicated socket / headphone cable / key cable
|
||||
- TX: 0.05, 0.5, 5 W; 0.5 default
|
||||
- RX: direct conversion with electronic 0.1 kHz steps or less
|
||||
|
||||
### user interface
|
||||
|
||||
- mechanical off/volume knob
|
||||
- 8 buttons: MENU, ESC, ENTER, +, -, A, Z, (RESET)
|
||||
- output by side tone in Morse code, default speed 20 WpM
|
||||
- LED optional (blinking with side tone)
|
||||
- 2 headphone jacks, optionally one with deactivated loudspeaker (low sound quality ok)
|
||||
- direct keying, elbug optional (selected by plug type?)
|
||||
|
||||
#### button functions during normal operation (not settings menu)
|
||||
|
||||
button press generates side tone, higher pitch when long press detected
|
||||
|
||||
- MENU: settings (short) / direct (DM) store (long)
|
||||
- ESC: status report (short) / direct (DM) recall (long)
|
||||
- ENTER: transmit (short or long)
|
||||
- +, -: freq change (increasing step size when long press, indicated by increasing side tone pitch) with reporting of changed digits in case of increased step size
|
||||
- A, Z: working memory recall (short) / store (long)
|
||||
- (RESET): hidden button for factory defaults (long)
|
||||
|
||||
status report: RX/TX freq (abbreviated inside range limits), battery level
|
||||
|
||||
#### settings menu
|
||||
|
||||
- while idle in settings, short beep every 2 sec
|
||||
|
||||
##### button functions in settings menu
|
||||
|
||||
- MENU: tell current item (short) / save and exit (long)
|
||||
- ESC: leave current menu (short) / abandon and exit (long)
|
||||
- +, -: change
|
||||
- ENTER: select current item
|
||||
- A: yes/set/all/max.value
|
||||
- Z: no/clear/zero/min.value
|
||||
|
||||
##### settings menu items
|
||||
|
||||
1. power level
|
||||
2. squelch level
|
||||
3. complete status and memory report
|
||||
4. semiduplex: TX using A/Z memory, notified by chirping sidetone, reset with ESC from this item or long ESC (DM recall) during normal operation
|
||||
5. switch direct memory (DM) and memory A/Z/+/- (shadow memories + and - only accessible this way), new DM freq reported with side tone
|
||||
6. receive offset (active after transmission and memory recalls, zero during scanning): reported by side tone beep, change by +/-, A/Z=1/0 kHz
|
||||
7. beacon text, enter as Morse code with up to 7 dots or dashes per character: A/Z=dash/dot, +/-=enter/delete character, MENU/ESC=save/abandon
|
