Re: QDX and FSQ?
Wayne,
Let us know how the FSQ works out. I'm interested in it too. I'm going to
try listening on 7105 tonight if I can get something set up.
I have a 40M Phaser rig I can move to 7105. I'm in

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Easy, shove a short circuit across the PA to ensure that max power is being sent
through the device under test.
When the device under test gets too hot then you know it's not safe.
Step 3. Increase

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Only BS170's ?
Not 2N2222's, BC108's, MPF102's ?
Erm, ANY? semiconductor is more fragile than a lump of metal elements inserted in a vacuum tube
because EVERY semiconductor relies upon a fragile

Re: QDX and FSQ?
Thank you for the info! I'm in the far SE corner of GA. I'm gonna try to get into tonight's net and see what happens. FSQ looks to be a fascinating technique.

Re: QDX and FSQ?
I am aware of two FSQ nets that are conducted out of TX and OK that you may
be able to reach. They are a regional group affiliated with AmRRON, but I
believe all licensed amateurs are invited to

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hi?Ryuji
I totally agree. It is an engineering?attitude that has spawned over 20,000 kits with the same PA. I don't think any more words are necessary.

Re: UL3S transmits continuously in RUN mode
Jerry,
I have only used my U3S for digital modes (mostly WSPR), but I am pretty sure the TX time is based on the length of the message.
With WSPR, that message is set at about 1minute 50 seconds or TX

Re: QMX SMD inductor 47uH (L504) what rating (mA)?
L504 is the RFC in the LPF selection PIN diode bias circuit.? Per the operating manual, the maximum value that can be set on the configuration screen is 60ma.? I would suggest that is the minimum

Re: UL3S transmits continuously in RUN mode
Progress.
You also have to take into account the calibration time. If you were to set the calibration parameters to say, 10 060 and frame 02 start 02 it should transmit for your 40 second, calibrate

Re: UL3S transmits continuously in RUN mode
Andy,
Thanks for the help. I found out that what I thought was the radio transmitting continuously was actually just the Si5351 running but not actually keying the amp. I was listening to it on a

Re: QMX LPF for [40m/30m] - Version 1 measured results
Nick, that makes sense and I'm sorry to hear what happened on your board.
Your measured S21 looked good enough for the US standard assuming no harmonic is stronger than the fundamental and the 40m

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
That's an interesting observation, but I offer another angle to look at it. For the record, my first transceiver was TS520V, and I'm also familiar with 6146. But BS170 is more fragile than 6146 or
