I want to thank all who worked to bring out the 40m kit. It amazes me the performance from my completed project. At 12 volts, it puts out a bit more than 5 watts, the receiver is sweet, and the keyer

I am assembling my Hilltopper 40 kit. The small inductors don't seem right. L1 = Brown Black (black gold). Alright for this one. L2 = Blue Gray (per manual) I have an inductor that orange orange gold

Is there a manual published for the Hilltopper 40 units? I was looking through the files and i found the firmware, but not the build manual. 72, Charles - NK8O

I sent this early this morning to the main group and to the Hilltopperkit group but it never made it to this group so I am re-sending it: For those that purchased or received shipment of one or more H

Chas: Thanks for the info. Increasing R8 to 100k gave me a very good (reduced) sidetone level. 72, Marc N4DR

My unit also has the backward switch with the symptoms noted. Hadn’t seen that the switch was backward, so glad to learn what is wrong! Please send the switch! Ken

Good evening It had been brought to my attention that we have shipped a Normally Closed s with with the latest shipment of Hilltoper 20 and 40. We are currently reordering the correct switch, and will

I am calibrating Hill Topper 40 this morning. The unit sends a R? then B? then A and finally the frequency with the cal jumper installed or removed. Upon examination it appears that the Function Switc

I recently completed the assembly of a Hilltopper 40 and started the calibration process this morning. I encountered a a R? then a B? and an A followed by the frequency. This occurs every time a power

I just finished my Hilltopper 20 and it works very nicely. However, the sidetone is really loud. I remember seeing something about reducing the sidetone on the list, but forgot where to look for that

Just about got mine ready ... also got it at OzarkCon. A few more components and then the hardware. Work on it twice a month at our builders club meeting at Joe Porter’s (W0MQY) house. Hope mine comes

Finally got around to building the Hilltopper 20 that I purchased at the 2018 OzarkCon. Put it on the air today and first QSO was with Sweden! Other station gave me a 577 report with the same on my en

Good evening Group We have experienced several delays from our suppliers as we re-kit the Hilltopper kits. We’re sorry for the delays, but we’re doinv the best we can. On the bright side, we will be r

I am just curious about the supply voltage tolerance for the radio. I am guessing 9V to 15V, with corresponding variation in output power. Has anyone tested performance on voltages other than 12V? 72,

Does anyone know if a decision has been made by the powers to be at the 4sqrp group to offer 30m or 40m versions of the Hilltopper Kits? If so, approximately when they might be coming? Thanks es 72 -

(you read that right) I used my Hilltopper 40 in yesterday's NA CW activity to the tune of 42 QSOs. That was with the low ground-plane antenna and a 1.3 AH Li-Ion battery. What a hoot! 73- Dave, K1SWL

Good afternoon i am pleased to announce that we have the Hilltopper 20 kits back in stock. All kits have been upgraded to Rev 2, thanks to Dave Benson K1SWL. Thanks 72 Johnny AC0BQ

John- (still inhaling the first cup of coffee here) DigiKey also carries the bootloaded version. At least with them, searching on 'Arduino' ensures that you're getting the right version. To my knowled

Well, installing my newly programmed chip was a spectacular failure. I tried to change the following parameters: Side tone, offset, and timeout for tuning. I ended up 50 KHz off frequency on transmit,
