If I plug in the gps it is powered, but something in the qcx is overheated. So I quickly unplug it.? gps is working fine still with 3S.? no shorts to ground on the pins. Getting 3.3k ohms between plus and minus power connection to the GPS. I am not readily seeing much in this circuit, I think I will check the regulator area.?
I did move the inductor as suggested, my strange behavior with the vfo resolution seems to be cured. Everything but gps interface is okay in qcx.
