I loaded 1.01.003 last night and ran the calibration routine. I thought everything went ok. I cycled power and started tuning around the bands. The first band I tried was 40 meters. I heard a group talking that were pretty loud so I figured I’d see if they would allow me to jump in. Sure enough they heard me and each station gave me a signal report. None of which was very strong. I was being heard from Los Angeles to Las Vegas from my home in San Diego. I was pretty excited it was working. I turned it on this morning to see if the band was open. Something was wrong, I couldn’t change bands to 10, 11 or 12 meters. Then it hit me, when I loaded the new firmware I never selected the proper band for the QMX. It defaulted to 60-15 meters. I was working stations on 40 meters on a QMX I built for 20-10 meters.?
That’s pretty impressive in my book.?
I’ll go back and run the calibration routine again today for the proper bands. Though I’m not sure it needs it.
