QMX receiver range
Anyone know the range of the QMX receiver?? Looked in docs do not see a range, upper and lower limits? BTW - my QMX is working great, made FT8 contacts on all band except 60 meters.? Receiver is

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Rearranging your statement, it would double the output capacitance.? This is likely significant, especially at the higher frequencies. 73, Don N2VGU

Fw: [QRPLabs] Continuous tone in the QMX Receiver
I have just measured the frequency of this tone and it is actually 706 Hz. Any ideas anyone? 73 Ian G4GIR

Re: Qcx+ blocked by qlg1 #qcx #qlg1 #qlg1troubleshooting
As the GPS inputs on the QCX are re used paddle inputs (IIRC) pumping the data stream in there in normal TX/RX mode will lock the CPU up if it doesn't enter Practice (TX disable) mode first The Only

1) Is known already. Future firmware will fix. 2) Is a hardware issue. What is the PWR_HOLD voltage before and after you try to shutdown? (I measure at R105 or gate of Q104) -mike/w1mt

#qmx post build issues and troubleshooting deadends #qmx
Hi Everyone! I've finished my QMX build, and going through fit and function tests.? So far I have identified two issues that appear to be software related and have all but ruled out hardware as a

Re: QDX Rev 2 problem
Dean, off the top of my head an I5 should be sufficient.? (I'm not a Windows person :-) ) When the issue occurs how busy is the FT8 frequency you are on? I would use the performance monitor tool

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hello all, I have been following this interesting discussion. I have a K2, which has in-built high current protection, which often trips using an automatic antenna tuner. Whilst tuning up, my fast

Re: BS170 Fail
Hey, all. The 1N914 diodes I ordered came in and I am ready to get one installed across L14 in my QDX. I'm quite a noob, so I am hoping someone can confirm my proposed install location and the

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
To build on Bojan's suggestion, take the heart of an ATU-100 and replace the PIC program with a stepping sequence to generate the range of reactance loads.? Maybe extend to an ATMega device with

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
At Motorola, we put a known SWR load on the end of a line stretcher and were therefore able to test a PA over the entire fixed VSWR circle of the Smith chart. This was easy to do at UHF, but would not

Continuous tone in the QMX Receiver
Hello All Almost a 100% build success. All appears to be working well with the QMX. Except for a continuous tone about 800-900Hz in the headphones. It isn't the CW side tone as I hear this when key

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
... to add, I am saying this because the only two MOSFETs I have unintentionally changed into resistors were from my first QDX Low bands by using full power into a QRP ATU matching an OCF

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hi Hans, my idea was to use an ATU as a load, with some kind of indication of the L, C parts used at each step and then you can go into a load open or short and let it tries to find a non existent

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hans, I' m talking about QDX.? I don't have th QMX yet. My antenna is a short endfed for 40m 20m 10m starting at 10m hight the end on 6m hight. The oscilation I got moostly on 40m. Perhaps different

Hello Bojan I'm seeking a reproducible lab scenario of worst case. I don't have "various antennas" and even if I did, it wouldn't be conclusive because the properties wouldn't necessarily be known or
