I modified it, but I took only two resistors and two transistors, the jumper can
be made with a thin wire. Without this modification the band switching
integrated circuit does not work.
Esquema:
PCB Total
Esta PCB, de 100x100mm, aproveita os espaços de sobra para ser ocupada por
um modulo automatico com o MCP28003, outra PCB com o CD4017 e ainda 9
PCBs para modulos de LPF.
Esta PCB principal, pode ser operada por uma chave de onda para troca
manual de bandas.
Or, with a button, control the board, by plugging in the control with the
CD4017, which changes bands with each press of the button.
Este metodo manual de troca de bandas, deve ser controlado por leds no
painel. Os leds devem ser conectados no plug da PCB, em amarelo no
desenho. Este plug tambem pode ser usado, para atuar reles de um LPF de um
PA, por exemplo.
Outra forma seria como uso do IC MCP23008, que via I2C faz o comando
automatico de troca de bandas. Esta forma automatica tambem esta prevista
em uma PCB por encaixe (modulo).
Another way would be using the IC MCP23008, which via I2C makes the
automatic command of changing bands. This automatic form is also provided
for in a plug-in PCB (module).
Esta placas encaixaveis ou modulos, estão na PCB total. Estão tambem as
placas encaixaveis, dos modulos do LPF, para cada banda.
Para usar a forma automatica é necessario alterar a configuração do Sketch
do programa. Ativando a Placa octoband do WB2CBA.
Para ativar a linha
//#define LPF_SWITCHING_WB2CBA_USDX_OCTOBAND 1
basta retirar as duas barras invertidas do inicio da linha
#define LPF_SWITCHING_WB2CBA_USDX_OCTOBAND 1
These plug-in boards or modules are in the total PCB. There are also plug-in
boards for the LPF modules for each band.
To use the automatic form it is necessary to change the Sketch configuration
of the program. Activating the WB2CBA octoband board.
To activate the line
//#define LPF_SWITCHING_WB2CBA_USDX_OCTOBAND 1
just remove the two backslashes from the beginning of the line
#define LPF_SWITCHING_WB2CBA_USDX_OCTOBAND 1
PCB do octoband
Esta PCB tem o tamanho da PCB do mutirão 54x82mm.
Da esquerda para direita temos:
Conector para comando externo, de um LPF de um PA por ex. ou do indicador
da banda selecionada, no caso de comando manual.
O segundo conector é para o modulo de comando CD4017, ou MCP23008 ou
futuramente o PCA9555 (já testado).
I used 12V relays, but we can use 5V relays by changing the power supply and
eliminating the 5V regulators.
Above the second connector we have the 12V input connection and ground
and the connection for the I2C.
Input and output RF connections in this drawing are interchanged, but must
be made with thin 50R coaxial cable and short leads.
In the assembly of this 8 bands, we used in the LPF modules, SMD COG or NP0
capacitors of 500V or more, but we could use ceramic or styroflex capacitors
of more than 200V. We use AR core coils to show that toroids are not needed.
With toroids it's easier to assemble but it's not easy to buy toroids around
here.
We remind you that the LPF of the collective effort are the same as those used
here.
The 12V relays we had in hand, and they are DIP size.
The integrated ones were purchased via Aliexpress, and the capacitors from
LCSC from China.
After the adjustments we obtained the following results with 12V, from 80 to
15m 5W, at 11 and 10m (up to 30MHz) 3.5W. We didn't choose to adjust it
thinking about high performance, but about power.

Despite the size of the inductors, you can mount it in a small box.
Os circuitos ficaram proximos mas funcionaram perfeitamente.
The USDX assembly is practically the same as the step-by-step, only differs on
the SN74CBT3253, replacing the 74HC4053
In the step-by-step article and my USDX, all the LPF assembly and adjustment
information is found.
