Hi folks,

I'm selling my assembled 40m QCX transceiver simply because it's not quite as suitable for a QRSS grabber as I hoped. ?I won't use it as a transceiver so it'll just sit here. ?It might as well go to someone who will use it for what it's intended. ?I’ve ordered a QRP-Labs receiver module, ProgRock and polyphase network kit instead.

This was built last week and has been running continually since then. ?The receiver is spot on, no problems with it whatsoever. ?I've done the startup mod.

I've not installed the keyer switch and it's never been put into transmit.?

The 27MHz crystal has a large hex spacer superglued to the top to increase the thermal mass and reduce any frequency drift. ?When I set it up, I had to reduce some turns on T1 so I just cut the wire, removed the turns and rejoined it. ?That part is a bit messy but apart from that, I think it's quite neat as I hope can be seen from the pictures.

I'll only sell this within the UK and I'd like ?50 for it which will include Royal Mail Special Delivery. Payment either via direct bank transfer or PayPal gift.

To buy one new works out at around ?40. ?I don't think that adding a tener to take into account postage and the time I spent building it is unreasonable. ?There's still a long delivery time on these so this is a chance to get one quickly.

Attached are some pictures of the unit and one frame from my QRSS grabber from a few days ago.

If you're interested, please contact me off list.
