Some helpful numbers to post would be the voltage you built your QMX for, and what is the overall input current draw in receive mode of your QMX??
?
For a 12v QMX you should see around 90 mA or so of current when it's on and idle (not transmitting).?
?
If it's substantially more than 90mA then your power meter is likely correct, and one of the output power transistors is likely blown/defective.... As a first diagnostic guess.?
