Hi,
I have just received my QCX (20m), and already assembled myself. The kit came with an AVR with a sticker 'T1.00e' on it.
However, after turning it on, it showed the dreaded one filled line (uninitialized LCD). Checking the contents of AVR via ISP, I saw an empty FLASH and empty EEPROM, and also the fuses seemed to be at the defaults (20MHz clock was not working). I fixed the fuses according to suggestion here (ext: FC, high: D1, low: F7), and at least the clock is now running.
I flashed the QCX flash .hex file, but as expected, now it shows "Use original IC". As I understand, it is caused by the empty EEPROM. Reading through the forum, I guess I should contact Hans directly, am I right?
Kind regards,
Karlis
