Yaesu G-5500 Ground Rail Fault & Better Voltage Drop Fix
Adam’s Yaesu G-5500 stopped working 🙁
Meter lamps came on, but non responsive otherwise.
An open circuit diode was found, D3, so no 0V GND rail existed.… Read more...

Adam looks at why the 13V rail appearing on the Yaesu G-5500’s External Control connector drops so much when a Rotator Controller board and 5.0″ Nextion are powered off this rail.… Read more...
Will the VK4GHZ K3NG-based controller boards work with a Yaesu G-5400 and G-5600 system, or anything else?
I’ve been asked this on more than one occasion!… Read more...

It’s not everyday you come across a project from somebody else that is well documented, relatively easy to pick up and work with, and, has the ability to customise it to your hearts content!… Read more...
The K3NG rotator controller is extremely well supported by the author, Anthony Good, K3NG.
Since the last bug report, one issue, easily overlooked by those not entirely familiar with the Nextion display, has been identified that can easily cause grief,
Along with creating fonts with iso-8859-1 encoding, make sure when setting up your Nextion HMI project in the Nextion Editor, that the character encoding type is also set to iso-8859-1.… Read more...
The K3NG Rotator Controller project is aimed towards Arduino Mega 2560 or similar hardware.
Standard ADC resolution on many of the Arduino boards is 10-bit, however the Arduino Due, Zero, and MKR family and Teensy 3.x… Read more...
