Here's the 24 Aug 2017 update of all my current sketches and libraries. Mainly tidying up and checking functionality on both AD9851 & Si5351 synthesiser platforms.

NEW NEW NEW!!! New GPS read code, display Lat/Lon or Maidenhead Locator, set RTC
I have a couple of new Arduino code sketches for GPS. The problem with my previous code was that it repeatedly read the GPS time, and set the RTC. This took too long and so the time display of the seconds jumped to every two seconds!
So I have completely re-written the code, it now waits for the GPS "fix", programs the RTC, gets the lat & Lon and calculates the Maidenhead Locator, then displays these, but displays the time from the programmed RTC, which then goes by seconds. Phew!!
My header file "Oled_128X64_I2C.h" has been published previously, look back and you will find it.
Just to remind you I use a VK-163 GPS (look on Amazon or ebay) which connects by a 4-way 3.5mm jack, and provides NMEA GPS data at 9600 baud. The block digram of the "VFO" I use is below, it uses an Arduino UNO with an AD9851 synthesiser and MMIC output amplifier giving up to 50mW output. The Arduino also drives an OLED 128x64 pixel display, using a U8g2lib library (look up on GitHUb). This is a great box of tricks and I can use it for many different sketches from GPS to WSPR, JT65, RTTY, PSK31, QRSS and DFCW...

New! ADS9851 library update, QRSS & QRSS DFCW for AD9851 VFO
Been a bit busy today with some updates and a couple of re-writes. First off I noticed a problem with the library ADS9851 which I wrote for the AD9851 Analog Digital Synthesiser. When the "down" function was called it did not completely turn off the output! It continued to output a low level signal 500Hz below the programmed one... I think this was due to the reset pulse applied being too short - it has to be at least 5 system cycles long. So I have included a small 2us delay in the "pulse" function to give a longer LOW-HIGH-LOW pulse. The same pulse is used for "init" so will serve both functions.
Here's the ".h" and ".cpp" code for the updated library,
// Arduino Library for AD9851 frequency synthesiser module, with 30MHz clock

NEW QRSS_CW and QRSS_DFCW sketches
Two very interesting slow CW modes are QRSS and QRSS DFCW. QRSS sends morse code at a very low speed, in this case it is 3sec/dot known as QRSS3. The DFCW mode sends both dots and dashes with the same lenght, but at different frequencies, in this case 5Hz apart, dash higher, dot lower.

Some Arduino routines for GPS
There are some very cheap GPS receivers on the market today, notably GPS originally designed for plugging into dash-cams. These receivers have a 4-way 3.5mm jack connection, and send out 9600 baud serial data in ASCII format.
You can also buy very cheap Arduino Nano boards and cheap OLED 128x64 pixel displays.
Putting this all together you can have a useful tool for amateur radio to display your latitude, longitude, Maidenhead Locator, date and time. Here are few of the code snippets useful for handling the data
HEADER definitions, libraries, defines and variables
#include "Oled_128X64_I2C.h" #include "SoftwareSerial.h" #include "Wire.h" // GPS connections, #define FROMGPS 12 #define TOGPS 13 #define SW 4 // GPS data buffer char gpsbuf[200]; // data extracted from $GPRMC, ACSII char tm[20]; // time HHMMSS char fix[5]; // fix A|V, init void char dt[20]; // date YYMMDD char la[15]; // latitude char ns[2]; // NS char lo[15]; // longitude char ew[2]; // EW // Maidenhead Locator char mh[10] = ""; // Date, Time Lat & lon decimal byte hrs, mns, sec; byte yr, mth, dy; byte dow; double lat, lon; // Serial object RX TX SoftwareSerial gps(FROMGPS, TOGPS);
CODE for setup
void setup() {
// pins
pinMode(FROMGPS, INPUT);
pinMode(TOGPS, OUTPUT);
pinMode(SW, INPUT_PULLUP);
// I2C init
Wire.begin();
// OLED init, I2C addr 0x3C
oled.begin();
// GPS serial init
gps.begin(9600);
strcpy(fix, "V");
dispUpdate();
}The basic loop CODE
void loop() {
getGPS(); // get GPS, extract data
if (strcmp(fix, "A") == 0) { // when GPS Aquired
getDateTime();
getMH();
dispUpdate();
}
}And finally the functions
// get RMC line data
void getGPS() {
do {
getline(gpsbuf);
} while (strncmp(gpsbuf, "$GPRMC", 6) != 0);
// extract strings from $GPRMC fields
xtract(gpsbuf, 1, tm); // time HHMMSS
xtract(gpsbuf, 2, fix); // fix A or V
xtract(gpsbuf, 9, dt); // date YYMMDD
xtract(gpsbuf, 3, la); // latitude
xtract(gpsbuf, 4, ns); // NS
xtract(gpsbuf, 5, lo); // longitude
xtract(gpsbuf, 6, ew); // EW
}
// get a line from the GPS, inc /r/n, add /0
void getline(char *out) {
char c;
int p;
p = 0; // buffer pointer
do {
if (gps.available() > 0) { // data?
c = gps.read(); // read character
out[p++] = c; // put in buffer
}
} while ( c != '\n' ); // stop on /n
out[p] = '\0'; // terminate string
}
// extract field and return string in outbuf
void xtract(char *in, int field, char *out) {
int ip = 0; // input buffer pointer
int op = 0; // output buffer pointer
int f = 0; // field counter
while (f < field) { // find start of field, ip
while (in[ip++] != ',');
f++;
}
while (in[ip] != ',') { // scan to next ','
out[op++] = in[ip++]; // copy in to out
}
out[op] = '\0'; // terminate out string
}
// ================ Date & Time, Dow =================
void getDateTime() {
// get GPS data in bytes, calc dow
hrs = strtob(tm, 0); // HH....
mns = strtob(tm, 2); // ..MM..
sec = strtob(tm, 4); // ....SS
dy = strtob(dt, 0); // DD....

dow = calcDow(yr, mth, dy);
}
// convert ASCII (0-99), starting at bp, to byte
byte strtob(char *in, int bp) {
char out[20];
strncpy(out, in + bp, 2); // copy 2 char
return (byte)atoi(out); // return byte

// add in the leap days

days += ((febs + 399) / 400);
days += months[month - 1] + day;
return (byte)(((days + 5) % 7)); // sun = 0

// ====================Maidenhead functions================
