I think you are correct about the photo, which makes me suspect that, at least for the QMX, this issue is a bit of a nothingburger. I purposely wound my MB QMX starting from the top and making my way down the side, so one the right side is anti-clockwise, and the left, clockwise.
My SWR sweeps are fine, except up around 10 metres. I will wind my next QMX per the photo and report back in a few weeks. Having said that, I plan to use #22 AWG teflon-insulated wire for the single-turn primary for this build, as I did for my QRP Guys meter, which is wound the same direction as my QMX...

According to the picture in the manual, it looks like you start the right side
by winding at the bottom and moving up, and the left side by starting at the
top and moving down.? In other words they are both wound anti-clockwise as
looking at them from the same end.? I'll need to figure this out soon, too!
