The QRPer Board

Just noticed that the same folk(s) behind the uBitx made a new model, this one is called sBitx

https://www.hfsignals.com/index.php/sbitx-v3/

and seems to offer quite a buch of features, but then it's an SDR and I wonder if it may be plagued by the same issues of other SDR based rigs, including the fact that they often have a too wide frontend and tend to overload in presence of strong signals

So... does anyone have infos/pointers related to the sBitx ?

No info per se: I just stumbled across the sBitx this week myself. It looks fascinating. Though the price is approaching that of a used IC-7300.

I did notice some cross-pollination: a couple of the sages from the QRP-Labs forum (Allison KB1GMX, Evan AC9TU) are also answering questions on the BITX20 forum (where sbitx is the main topic of conversation). Also Farhan, the designer.

Definitely something to keep an eye on. I, too, am interested in infos / pointers!

Got one.
Only using it with the native FT8 program, no other modes.
A bit nervous about the reports of blown finals over 2:1 SWR and the spares included.
Operating at 70% power and just made qso number 275.
It runs very well, some minor quirks and unfamiliarity with Linux.
Neighbor ham saw it and got one, he reports the same results.
This is hard to explain, but I feel, reading the .io blog that the folks are more interested in Raspberry pi than they are about the fact that this is a ham radio.
