Re: QSX
Hi R. Tyson, I have a pair of Johnson Matchboxes. Those will handle QRP for sure. I have used them at 5 watts and less many many times. They do not even get warm! <evil grin> I also have the BLT that

Re: QSX - kits and accessory while you wait
I would concur. Specifically on the Z match tuner... the Emtech ZM-2 tuner is one that offers good tuning for coax and twin lead, and has the built-in resistive bridge for finals protection while

OK2BQN, The key in your method is "original microprocessor". Would you not need to have a functioning original uP to get it to give up the code? This thread was about how to handle a non-functioning

It would depend on what you wanted to aspect you were wanting to tune- min SWR or Max signal. If you had a good stable signal source to listen to on the QCX, you might find the S-meter would respond

Is there a way to tune your dipole antenna (cut it to length) with the QCX without any other instruments? I know the QCX has the S-meter. Can this be used for tuning purposes?

Re: QCX Encoder
I received my Bourns encoder today (The one Jack found) and it looks nice. I think there is enough friction in the bushing that the felt may not be needed but the felt sure is a good option and thanks
