Re: QMX 20/80m BPF TXswap Clarification
Hello Steve No. It swaps a band called "20" with a band called "80". It doesn't swap slots BPF 1 and 3. I am quite doubtful that this swap is necessary or beneficial if the proper Rev 2 mod is done

Hi Joan, just wondering, if this could be the GPS-protection kicking in due to RF on the keying line? Did you notice any "G" in the display? Maybe deactivate GPS protection, if you anyway don't use

Hi Don. That contact burnisher may be too harsh for paddle contacts, especially very costly paddles with silver or gold plated contacts. I would also be nervous about sandpaper, even very fine

Re: QMX Receive suddenly stop working
Howard, Checking the bias voltage to the mux usually provides a good test of 3253 health. It can be measured at a number of easily accessible points, such as any terminal of T401, or on C406. It

This does sound easy enough - to make the attenuator attenuate more, although it looks to me that there's a very happy frequency that this amp wants to operate, which implies that somewhere, this
