Re: Kit shipping
Dear Hans, ??? Could you consider sending packages via a courier like DHL or TNT? It is true that there would be higher costs for buyers, but parcels would be fast and very important without loss.

Re: QCX-20 power output
Hi Chris, Several QCX 20m version builders, myself included,? found that the output filter capacitors C25 and C26 (390pF NPO ceramic) were quite lossy.? This may be due to a bad batch of capacitors

Well that proves that the LOW pass filter is doing its job then!!

Re: Has anyone ever connected QLG1 to an Arduino Uno?
Sounds easy as you only need to send data into the ?rx pin and send it to console at each newline.? Maybe do use a SoftwareSerial on another pin if rx port gets blocked by the usb console connection

Hello Kevin, what is exact your problem ? Maybe we have the same problem. I have here Arduino UNO and Arduino Mega. With UNO I cannot receive the NMEA strings correct, with Mega it works fine. -- 73

Hi Kevin You can't connect a QLG1 directly to the IC-9700 as the QLG1 is 5V TTL level and the radio is RS-232. You need to implement an level converter as the MAX232 or even easier pick up an ready

Kevin, And if you connect the IC9700 TXD you must be sure it sends TTL. If not some sort of conversion is required. A resistor/zener is the simplest way. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Re: Stock QCX-17 musters only 20 milliwatts output on 28001.7 kHz
Is that with a 17M low pass at the output or something else? If the stock 17M filter is in place then its working so your loosing a lot? power to it likely 10-20db. FYI the output low pass filter has

Stock QCX-17 musters only 20 milliwatts output on 28001.7 kHz
Stock QCX-17 musters only 20 milliwatts output on 28001.7 kHz. Now, admittedly, that's not a whole bunch of output power...and it is only about 38 dB higher than the nearest 'noise', according to the

Hi Dave Yes, it is and, yes, they are. Hmmm, you know, there's less than a 2x freq factor, going from 10m to 6m...wondering whether the new QSX could manage that... 72 / 73, Bill, N4QA

Bill, Is this the one you've been "abusing"??? Are all your finals still intact? I'm actually wondering what I should do with the LPF for the QCX-20 that is on order... regards, Dave N3AC wrote:

In his QCX manual, sections 7.6 & 7.7, Hans includes some very interesting info about transmitter & receiver sections' filtering, mostly featuring the xmtr lpf and the rcvr bpf circuits. Currently,
