Re: QCX+ adjustement and alignment
Hi Pierre. I also recommend watching that video, especially the part where Hans shows you it is not necessary to clean out the holes. The toroid leads can be soldered to the top side of the board and

Re: QMX+ onboard microphone

Chuck, Yes, on the QMX the microphones are tied directly to the ADC inputs of the STM32F processor. A preamp may improve things by slightly increasing the voltage seen by the processor and also by

Re: QMX+ receive current; what's typical?
The QMX uses about 1W on receive so ~83mA at 1v, ~111mA at 9v and ~143mA at 7v. 160mA at 9.28v is a smidge high, but perhaps not enough to worry about? When you run diagnostics, does the duty cycle

QMX+ receive current; what's typical?
My QMX+, a factory 12v build,? draws 160ma at 9.28v, the voltage at which I operate for tx/rx. for all modes. Transmit current is consistent with my readings. The various PDF manuals I have searched,

The more complete short story, as I understand it: Because of early design decisions, the microphones connect directly to the microprocessor's ADC inputs. In most radios, there would be a microphone

QMX Receiving FT8 but No Change When Antenna Disconnected
Hi all, I¡¯ve completed assembly of my 60¨C15m QMX. It powers on and passes the RF and SWR sweep tests. Test ADC I/Q shows sine waves, particularly on 60m. I can hear what sounds like FT8 on 7.074

This means your supply voltage is 13.8 V, *wrong* ! There are several warnings in the documents not to feed a 12 V QMX by more than 12.0 V. This looks like a broken controller IC203. Is the current

PTT selection in QMX+
Is it possible to choose the active grounded method for PTT via the Menu or is it necessary to utilize a terminal program. ?If so,I could use some help finding the correct menu item! ?Thanks.

Re: RF Amp using the now cheap GaN-FET's
Could these GaN FETs simply replace the BS170s in the QRP Labs kits?? Maybe get JLPCB to make a postage stamp sized board to replace the current block of BS170s.
