Re: QCX #943 an LCD? problem.

Hi Paul
The current official version (just released) is 1.00d. See?
I offered to email a beta test version of 1.00e to anyone who asks for it - it fixes a bug in the WSPR beacon functionality; the second half of the WSPR transmission contains some corrupted WSPR symbols and this reduces the ability of receiving stations to copy the signal (because it reduces the noise immunity etc.). 1.00e will become the official live version in due course.?

Paul, You have to email Hans and request it.? It has some intermediate bug fixes before the next version comes out.? He'll send it to you via email rather than post it as it's a Beta and not fully tested yet.? He may even have a later version under construction.? I saw the reference to it in one of the threads reporting a bug in the keyer portion of the program and I requested it before my QCX got here so I'd have it on hand if I needed it.
I believe 1.00c is the latest that's in the history list though. ?1.00c has a few known "warts" and I'm sure 1.00e does also, but the firmware keeps getting better and better as bugs are reported, confirmed and Hans finds time in his seriously busy schedule to fix them. ?

Where did you find version E?? (v 1.00e)
I looked at the software updates and could not find it.

Now that QCX40 #943 is up and mostly running, here's a couple pix of it.
? The Arduino ISP progammer worked and firmware version 1.00e is clearly
shown on the startup screen.? The QCX aligned well and it only has a
problem with the sidetone not working right on transmit.? The receiver
is getting overloaded by the transmitter and I'm currently
troubleshooting that problem.? Might have a bad BS170 at Q5 or Q7?
