Yesterday I activated a POTA and took part in the Skeeter Hunt with 10 contacts in 7 States and the RBN reporting me 3750 miles away using my QCX-Mini and a homebrew 20m (46”) Mag mount. ?My power after the tuner was just 3.5w or so.
My point is....... don’t sweat trying to squeeze out the last mW, it’s the ears on the other end and YOUR antenna that is most important.

The QCX-Mini is a great machine and I bet that the QMX is better in many ways too !!

I agree with other commenters. Quit while you are ahead.... Or buy another kit, build it, and tweak/modify to the max! That way you will always have one that works :) Sandy KB3EOF
