zBitx, sBitx

Over the past couple of years, a little Amateur Radio miracle has happened right before our eyes. TWICE!

I want you all to slow down and think about what has been built here. A one-man show has had the vision and has merged a computer front end with an SDR-based radio in a single box. The core software and hardware were developed, and the radios are in production and shipped to customers worldwide!

I am standing up and applauding everyone involved!

In some ways, these radios are modern-day tinker toys. Instead of wood parts, we have software modules, computer displays, touch screens, and more.

How many of us toss $ 200 USD on coffee every month? The LDG antenna tuner I use on my 80M horizontal loop costs more than the zBitx.

Anyone can work on the software on GitHub. If you do not like the way the software does something, do not complain; change it. If you are unwilling or unable to learn, hire someone. But give back, please! Anyone can update the Wiki on groups.io and help others through their journey.

The community needs help; provide it! Dale Carnegie training taught me not to criticize, condemn, or complain. So I am diving in,….

I will be documenting how to add Tailscale to the zBitx first, as I have one. I am also going to get JS8Call running on it.
