Re: QMX+ loses audio.
What’s the version of your wsjt-x and is it on macOS? I noticed a weird bug that wsjt-x v2.7.0 on macOS can deafen qmx every time it transmits or changes the band. Entering the menu then exit

Re: Board revision
While seems likely you may get version 3, building from a screen works nicely. Just starting my qmx plus build now. Plenty of room on small surface for my screen, kit and tools. It's actually easier

Re: Enclosure wrong size
Hey Dudley,
The capacitors are trained to hide in the knobs on these kits. Look in the cavity where the shaft goes. I have three of the QMX series kits and have experienced capacitors in the shaft

Re: QDX Transmit Power Drops
Hi Doug,
I agree with Nate that the symptom you describe is not normal.? My guess is that the BS170s are getting warm.? The resistance of a MOSFET increases as the temperature rises, reducing the

Re: QDX Transmit Power Drops
Doug, that's not normal, no.? I'm not sure what to point to, though. Something impacted by current...... so could be T1, L14, or BS170 soldering faults? I suppose if something in the LPF was heating

Board revision
Hi,
I've just ordered a QMX+. I want to print the assembly manual out. I'm assuming it'll be a Rev 3 PCB but I'm wondering if I should wait until the kit arrives to be sure and not 'waste' paper and

Re: QMX+ SSB audio distorted on one band only
Update.
After a lot of fiddling with the 20m band edges I ended up with this:
Which leads to this:
Which seems to have cured the distortion.
I have no understanding of what the frequency numbers

Many thanks, Don and Daniel.? With great sadness I have opened a support ticket, but I agree that there's not really another option for me.

Re: QMX+ high pitch noise on power. Now dead.
Where is D110 on the qmx board? I can try to check its state.

Re: QMX+ high pitch noise on power. Now dead.
I turned it off with the QMX power switch. Earlier today it was exposed to
more voltage for a short period of time but it was still working fine after
that. I'm not very good at reading schematics but

Hi Stan,
Thanks for the tip.
I did have a go at messing around with the band config for 20m but I was trying to get a plot similar to the examples rather than aiming to get a complete run.

Re: QMX+ SSB audio distorted on one band only
Stan,
Many thanks for this. It makes complete sense in my head. Can you give me a clue as to which direction you changed the band sweep values?

QMX won’t power up
Hello. I was using my QMX on 40m and 20m FT8 with a known good antenna and computer connection, successful QSOs, and no SWR lock outs or other signs of issue.

Re: Difficulty after loading ssb firmware beta 1-01-03 on QMX+
In my case it seems that editing the tcxo down 2 Hz causes the audio dropout. Returning to 25Mhz instantly restored things !! Yes I am running the SSB beta 1-00-03 firmware.

Re: QMX+ loss of CAT after "S"
Good chance the SWR was accompanied with common mode current on the connection(s) to the PC which could cause connection loss (and worse)
Sort the antenna and ‘ferrite up’
