European version: no TX on 60-meter band
After I finally received my new toy on Monday, I took some time going through the settings and made my first test QSOs with a compromised antenna. Then I tried to transmit on the 60-meter band, but

Re: Automatic Antenna Units- in particular, the LDG Z-817, QRP
I agree. I have a wide collection of QRP tuners. The ZM2 Is my go too. It just works. I never have to worry about dead batteries in the field. It takes a few seconds more to tune, but I'm sure in a

Re: Automatic Antenna Units- in particular, the LDG Z-817, QRP
I would like to add to the mention of the EM-Tech ZM2. ?It is very simple to tune and most importantly, can tune just about anything (though I have not tried tuning my truck body as a emitter yet,

Re: Firmware update - TX-500 Firmware v1.09.01
I¡¯m not sure where it was before. I¡¯d guess 300hz which is the default for SSB. You still can¡¯t change it manually. I¡¯d prefer it to be user selectable but this is a step in the right

Where was the cutoff for FIL-1 in DIG mode before? I would think it was around 1100 kHz? Can I change it manually

Re: Europe: first batch arrived
Thanks Robert, Because the TX-500 ticks all my boxes, I never gave up on waiting. But the reason I write this reply is because I want to warn others from FedEx, which is the worst delivery service I

Re: Europe: first batch arrived
Marcin, Congratulations on getting your TX-500. Welcome to the group! Have fun with the SOTA effort. What serial number did you receive? 73, Henry - K4TMC (#5061)

Re: Europe: first batch arrived
Hello! My TX-500 was sent from Sweden on Monday and arrived here (southern Poland) yesterday, delivered by UPS. Connected it today and I really like the device. Going to try it on a SOTA summit soon.

Totally agreed, but let's not knock the enthusiasm!

Re: Firmware update - TX-500 Firmware v1.09.01
Totally agree with Kevin K3OX - Lab599 releases new versions a bit too fast. I also work in a software team and even if a customer asks for an enhancement that sounds useful and easy to implement, we

Re: Europe: first batch arrived
Sorry to hear about the delay, Stephan. I did some WSPR on 6m yesterday afternoon and due to the current sporadic e conditions the TX-500 achieved 1500km with 0,5 Watts, even though I didn't have a

Re: Going deaf. Need advice as to gear for digital with the TX-500¡­
Have talked with family and advisors about my health and hearing. When grilled about what I wanted to do, vis-a-vis Amateur Radio and not being able to hear, options began to appear and disappear.

Re: Europe: first batch arrived
Hi Robert, It seems that DHL is much quicker and more reliable than FedEx. The package arrived today in North-Germany, but not here in Switzerland as promised. I really look forward trying out this

QST Review of the TX-500
The August 2021 issue of QST has a 7-page review of the TX-500. Overall, it is a good review. Some of the numbers are better than Sherwood's data. However, the significant issue is the existence of

Re: Firmware update - TX-500 Firmware v1.09.01
Well the downgrade went well (so far), and I have the 4 memories back. ** I'd like to suggest a possible way to solve the dilemma of four shorter memories vrs. two longer memories. Chaining memories

Re: Firmware update - TX-500 Firmware v1.09.01
Yeah....4 memories for CW was a selling point, AND only two is truly sad .....I will be downgrading back to retrieve them and restore the radio's usefulness. (The memory change was the very first

Re: Firmware update - TX-500 Firmware v1.09.01
Henry, I think it would be a good idea to have an auto-repeating 'beacon' option for the voice memories as well. What I typically do though do is just push the button, it sends my voice message, then
