Re: QDX: Receiving great but needs more audio output gain in order to xmit for more than 250 milliseconds.
Hi Bill I think I mentioned before, and I believe it is also in the manual: 1. The audio again theoretically controlled by the AG command applies only to the QDX in receive mode. It is irrelevant for

Re: Artwork for "Manual Days" Chinese Antenna Tuner
Acrylic spray will only dissolve decals or what we call Letraset. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letraset ) Good luck removing that stuff if it's on a plastic case ;-)) - 73 de Andy -

Re: QDX: Receiving great but needs more audio output gain in order to xmit for more than 250 milliseconds.
GM, Geoff and the gang. Mark explicitly said that the QDX was in good working order so I? must presume that any issues are with my setup here. QDX consistently xmits great but only for 250 ms each

Re: Artwork for "Manual Days" Chinese Antenna Tuner
Here's another hint if you haven't built the little tuner yet. Check the DPDT toggle switch with an ohmmeter before you solder it to the circuit board!! Suppliers seen to have gotten a great deal on

Re: QDX: Receiving great but needs more audio output gain in order to xmit for more than 250 milliseconds.
Hey Bill, if you received your assembled QDX from Mark, have you asked Mark if he tested the unit before delivering to you? Could you return the unit to Mark and ask him to test for you?

Re: #qdx for 40, 30, 20, 17 + #qdx
Sverre, here is a photo of how I modified the 80M winding to a 26MHz winding. Look closely and you may see I cut the tap at the end of the 40m winding on L12 (at 36 turn point), removed the last 5

Re: #qdx for 40, 30, 20, 17 + #qdx
Hi Sverre, remember this is work in progress.... I chose the values from ELSIE to give a 5 order elliptical LPF. You will see I have attempted to cut off the third harmonics on Tx from 18mhz to 30mhz,

Re: #qdx for 40, 30, 20, 17 + #qdx
Hi Ken That¡¯s interesting! I got my own QDX last week, and am halfways through the build now. I¡¯m leaving the 80 m filters out for the moment, getting ready first for the input BP filter. it would

Re: QDX PTT to QRP LABS Amp
Will, I am sorry to hear that PA is dead. The PA bias is needed to be adjusted as per assembly manual, so just a bit back from the finals to conduct.? To be class C amplifier.? No matter what the RF

Re: Qdx terminal tx test #qdx
Hi Adam, re tx testing¡­ I did not mention it but I was using Putty on the raspi to enter terminal mode in the first place. I have just found out that you can¡¯t do continuous key press over VNC.

Re: QDX: Receiving great but needs more audio output gain in order to xmit for more than 250 milliseconds.
Bill, My comment on using a dummy load reduces the chance of RFI causing the QDX to cause the drop out of the transmission.? The dummy load is not an issue; it is a way to help isolate the problem.

Re: Artwork for "Manual Days" Chinese Antenna Tuner
Turns out my 67 year old self isn't much better with decals than my 11 year old self! I think I need to not move them as much? and trust the force. I'm trying a bit more acrylic spray as well.

Were you aware that you can get waterslide decal paper that's printable with an inkjet printer? There's both white background and clear background available. So you can roll your own. 73 Jim N6OTQ

Re: Artwork for "Manual Days" Chinese Antenna Tuner
I'm having terrible luck with the waterslide decals, but I've squeezed the tuner into a smaller box.
