#sBITX_v3 #sBITX_v3


 

Hello, 
 
I am reading through the sBitx v3.01 Manual.
 
"Setting up the sBitx
Choosing an Antenna
The sBitx can withstand up to 2.0 SWR of antenna mismatch, It is best to use a well matched antenna that keeps the SWR below 1.5 for best results. WIth 40 watts of power, even a wire dipole can give you good results."
 
Emphasis mine, so what is the power of the sBitx v3? The web site says 25W. The manual mentions 40W. I am assuming this is valid for the v2 version, but not the v3?
 
Best regards.
 


 

The earlier versions gave 40 watts. We dialled it down to 25 watts in the later incarnations

I would suggest stating this in the manual as well to avoid confusion. Great radio btw, I am enjoing it! (W6ABD).
