Re: Gen 4 released
No body forces to buy this Q900 transceiver
I have one and like it and breaking down? I still remember the FT-100 and the IC-7000 both had these transceiver and they broke down...

Programming
For everyone’s awareness,
I’ve been underwhelmed by GHterminal as a programming tool, therefore filed a ticket to have it supported by CHIRP.

Re: 3.4.1
Bob you need the data cable that you use to upload the binary. It will power the keyboard. It plugs into the data port on top of the radio.

Yes, you're right... amateurs would do better!

Re: Gen 4 released
The witty response Bob is amateurs would do a better job (radio amateurs of course). Some people love the Q900, especially V4, but I am skeptical of the longevity of the unit. I am now using mine

Re: Gen 4 released
Heatsinking of the radio should have been on top of the case and never at
the bottom. Bigger fins would always help in dissipating heat more
efficiently. Size of case should not be the primary choice

Re: Gen 4 released
At first, I thought how cool it was to have two fans, although I never got to the point of even testing the airflow to see if it is a "crossflow" design, which constantly empty the case of hot air. I

Re: Gen 4 released
I am sorry to hear of your blown finals, Edouard. You did well to repair them, something that would be beyond the competence of most Q900 users.
Here I have the Q900 V4 and I do like using the FT8CN

Re: 3.4.1
This is what I was given
1. Updated the KAY1 error in the first line of the CW automatic call, and updated it to KEY1.
2. Solved the problem that V4 occasionally cannot receive signals when switching

Re: [Q900] PTT jack on the back
This is not to replace the internal R81 on input of the LK1801S but a pull up resistor between +5V and the PTT tip.

Hi George,

470kohms is way too big. 910 ohms, under 1k.

Re: [Q900] PTT jack on the back
I tried this but the current is so small when PTT is on that it cannot even lower voltage by more that a few mV even with a 470k pull up resistor. This PTT output is just useless.

Re: [Q900] PTT jack on the back
Thanks for the details. There are some 5V relay modules that take a trigger
signal and can be set to trigger if low or high. Then you'd need much less
current through a pull up resistor. I have
