Hello Wolfgang, Yes, you're right, hmmm, this one is for Hercule Poirot :-)) Regards, YO3GFH op. Adrian

It may depend on the supplier and stocks. Out of curiosity, I've checked Mouser, and it seems the

I have encountered the wrong pin-out on transistors purporting to be BS170s that I ordered from China. These have the source and drain swapped over (see attached photo), so I I had to fit them

What kind of usb-c converter are you using? I tried simple usb-a power bank (5V out) and dc-dc buck to step up; worked surprisingly good for receive (no additional noise) but it would add a terrible

Adrian, on page 6 in both data sheets the "Pin Array" is D-G-S. So, there is probably an error on page 1 of the December, 2021 ? Rev. 6 data sheet. 73 Wolfgang DK4RW

I recall a quote (it might have even been on this Group) saying something like "the wonderful thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from!" 73 Brian G3ZOH

I've never seen it either. And since the universe de facto hates me, I'd have thought by now it ought to have taken the opportunity to pollute my BS170'isms with a batch of mixed up pinouts.

Adrian, No I did not notice the PDFs! I did look and did not find any with the different pinout. I have been using Softrock RXTXs for 15+ years, QCX, QDXs also BS170s for other purposes.. Unless my

Hello Alan, It is very real, unfortunately. One of our local shops (https://rowaves.com/) specifically warns about differences between Fairchild and Onsemi BS170 variants. And you can see my above

Really Adrian? Maybe this has been mentioned before but I do not remember. The BS170 is used in so many home-built rigs and has been for many years. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

...and it gets even more beautiful :-) ONSEMI *used* to make BS170 that way... until end of 2021... from April 2022, they seem to follow the Fairchilld way (D-G-S) So, when you buy a batch, I wonder

And if you thought: it couldn't get worse! Well, yes it can :-) ONSEMI makes D-S-G BS170 :-))) So, we have it almost all ways, D-G-S, S-G-D, D-S-G Beauty! Regards, YO3GFH op. Adrian

Lloyd, And the TX line (I presume) goes high? 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Peder, I would be very suspicious. I've never known anyone say genuine BS170s have different pinouts. Be careful, failed PA transistors can damage the driver and also other components. 73 Alan

Good morning. Just a reminder to those of you who need to replace the BS170 in the finals (QCX/QDX/QMX). Carefully check the pin order so you don't end up with transistors that have swapped pins

One more for the pile: I have both QMX 80-20M and 20-10M versions, both are working like champs, excellent DX all around, running 014 firmware. But PTT isn't working at all on either version of the

Just had a thought, you do have Minicom not running when you try to connect to Wsjtx don't you? 73, Cliff, AE5ZA

I'd use putty from the Pi. Minicom is an old terminal emulater. Used it on 386 computers. It sounds like the way it handles end-of-line is not configured properly. If I remember correctly it can

Hmmm... I've never used Minicom so don't know why it would comeup at the Configuration screen rather than the normal initial screen. Did you get the first 5 items on the webpage for QDX is alive and

Hi All I've only had a chance to try 15 alpha this evening so apologies if this has all already been said.? I've been testing it by dabbling in the EUDX contest at between 24 to 28 wpm.? I use iabic
