Bitx Version 3 QRV From Indonesia.

Getting the feeling to hear  a new Bitx 3 qrv from some part of the world is always an amazing feeling for me as well as Bitx Fans world wide.


Joy has published on You Tube his completed Bitx Version 3 and has been very kind in sending me an email and link to his You Tube Channel.


Here is the email sent to me by Om JOY/YB0NSI



Hi Sunil,


I have finally completed the BitX20 I bought from you in March 2010..It is now placed in its final homebrew casing..It is a good kit with a quiet and sensitive receiver..With or without the FLL and a good antenna, it will work the world..I have managed to work 5 continents with it..Attached is the BitX20 working USA state-side and there are others on my YouTube Channel..I will also take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2012 !! .. 73, JOY/YB0NSI

BitX20 working USA Stateside
Trying out QRP DX to USA stateside on 20m..Worked N1UK n K8XS, both from the East Coast via short path (through the North Pole)..Barely made it with a 3-5 report..An AGC is certainly needed to prevent the receiver from overloading by local strong signals..The counter is still jumpy due to RF but does not affect TX quality and the FLL works FB..Will isolate the RF Leak later by re-routing some of the wiring, improving Ground connection and putting some RF Beads..73

Bitx Version 3 Receiving

Published here are a few videos that show the Bitx Version 3 in receiving mode for 20mt band.

The Bitx version 3 that has been made is with no modifications at all and is made as  details and parts
provided in the kit. I have used Steroflex Capacitors in the VFO.

The Freq counter used is the DL4YHF Design . The set is quite stable with not much of drift at all.

The RX works great with strong signals being heard. The band conditions also seem to be quite
good and lot of DX stations can be heard.

The set tunes the complete band from 14.000 MHZ to 14.350 MHZ

I hope the video will give ample view to show that the Bitx Version 3 Kit works as one of the best
and easy designs for Hams world wide building the Bitx 3 .

Hi Sunil, the FLL seems to work FB..Thanks..JOY/YB0NSI

Comments on You Tube By Joy

"With the FLL, the BitX20 is quite stable.. Working DX with 9M2NZI in Johor, West Malaysia, about 1000 Km away from my QTH..PEP is about 3W using a 50K Yaesu dynamic mic and a Mic Amp..The FLL works FB and is available from Sunil..The whole QSO is about 5 minutes and the TX/RX frequency barely move..The Antenna is a single element monoband rotary dipole about 25 meters (75 ft) from the ground..Thanks OM Nazri for the great QSO..73 "

Bitx Version 3 By JOY/YC0NSI

We are glad to post a video as sent by Om JOY/YC0NSI  for his Bitx Version 3 .

Here are the the comments posted by Om JOY/YC0NSI

"Final test using an amplified Astatic Mic for CB..Good reports obtained

even though many said that my voice is more on the treble CB type

quality..Average output is only 2+Watt on voice peak and about 4 Watt

on a whistle test..I have ordered the FLL kit from OM Sunil and I hope

I would be able to obtain a more stable TX/RX frequency..73.. "
