Re: BS170 EOL
After leaving MPLS Honeywell in 1960 I joined Control Data in a production division called IDP. I helped unload a truck full of stuff we purchased from the General Time division of a company located

Re: BS170 EOL
Fabulous, Dick! I designed and assembled cordwood modules at GE Reentry Systems Division in Philadelphia in the early 1970's. They were op amp based integrators for capturing gamma rays reflected

Re: QMX Questions
There is a page of parameters linked to the first option. I think it is the first. I am not at my QMX. Too nice at the beach. ;) There are two rows of numbers at the bottom of that screen. You have to

Re: QMX Questions
Thank you Mike and Colin for your kind and helpful responses. Mike, how do I access the band configuration? I don't see this on the menu options. george/n9dxp

Re: QMX LTSpice BPF filter plots
Hi John and all. In an attempt to put this question to bed (Zin of Tayloe detector), I emailed Dan Tayloe himself (the great and awesome Oz of the detector). He got back to me today with a detailed

Re: QMX Questions
S meter probably not implemented yet. Firmware is very alpha. Check band configuration Tx/Rx Parameter 2. If they are 0 change them to 1 and that may take care of the popping. -mike/w1mt

Re: QMX Questions
The S meter does not seem to be enabled in the FW yet. People have reported that disabling the battery meter solves the key click issue. We are using a very immature software right now. Soon we should

Re: QMX Alignment
George, There are a lot of QMX menu items that are non-functional. Some of them have just not been fully implemented and some are irrelevant as the QMX does a lot differently than the QCX and some

Re: BS170 EOL
That picture of a cordwood assembled module - tube included - took me back to 1965 memories. It's been YEARS since I assembled cordwood modules for a Boeing prototype * Data Storage And Processor

QMX Questions
A couple of questions while trying out my new QMX. The S meter does not display when enabled. In CW mode when I release the key I get a significant popping sound in my earphones. Any suggestions?

Re: QMX help - damaged SMD capacitors #problem
Here is the ending to this story. After my trouble ticket?WJG-P5N-NY9B going unanswered (25 days in queue today and still not even an acknowledgment of receipt), I sent my QMX to a professional

I wish it was that easy. Mine is already set at 30. 73, Cliff, AE5ZA

Re: QMX Capacitor Swap Gives Lower Power. #qmx
That's my big question. Did I use faulty parts? I don't think so, but no way to test the caps. 73, Cliff, AE5ZA

Re: QMX Capacitor Swap Gives Lower Power. #qmx
I also have better power output on 20 with the cap swap. I think your problem lies with the PIN diode bias. The band configuration screen that Hans showed for mod #2, shows only 5mA PIN bias on 20.

Re: QMX Alignment
No it will not. It's more akin to the QDX hardware wise than the QCX. Think of the QMX as a QDX with the added functionality of the QCX. -mike/w1mt

QMX Alignment
Does the QMX require some alignment? I see the alignment menu but not sure what to do with it. I looked at the QCX instructions which show some potentiometers and a variable capacitor to adjust. The

And I had the opposite experience. My power went up with swapping the caps. Not sure what's different. -- 73, Dan? NM3A
