UBitx v6 Kit Parts<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I purchased the uBitx v6 Kit with a Case, and was a little surprised there were not more parts, but then I noticed all the controls but one are mounted on the RF board, making for a cleaner and quicker assembly, This was great, faster to the fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"uBitx<\/a>
uBitx v6 RF Board<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Ubitx v6 comes with most of the controls mounted to the RF board, this makes assembly a lot faster, but does limit your options for using other controls, and other cases, but overall this is not a problem, I have the uBitx v5 to experiment with in any case<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\"uBitx<\/a>
uBitx v6 Touch Screen<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The biggest improvement between the uBitx v5 and v6 is the addition of a touch screen, it looks very small, but fits the look and feel of the radio, a bigger screen would be out of place in this radio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"uBitx<\/a>
uBitx v6 Case<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

You can buy the uBitx v6 with or without a case, I purchased the case and I was very glad I did, It is a professional looking metal case that is custom fit for all the parts<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

ubitx v6 Extra Wiring Harness<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The uBitx v6 Kit also comes with a extra wiring harness to allow attachment of external controls, just in case you want to install it in another case, or add custom options<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ubitx v6 Kit Parts<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The uBitx v6 Kit also comes with a cable to extend the Arduino Nano Mini USB port out to the back of the case, this allow easy custom programming of the Nano<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Summary, I am very impressed with the workmanship of the overall kit, nice case, board mounted controls, BIG VFO knob, and its a complete radio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now to Assembly the Kit and start using it on the air!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
