Re: QMX Feature Request - field “tune” mode
Yes, my request is technically fulfilled by the Tune mode in the Hardware Test menu. Thanks to those that pointed out the existing feature.
Also, as G0UPL and others have observed, the existing Tune

Re: #qmx high band harmonics

Be sure to also buy attenuator(s), since the SA can be catastrophically damage? if connected directly to even a QRP rig.
I use a combination of a 10W dummy load with a built in 30dB attenuator

Re: QMX Feature Request - field “tune” mode
Would it be possible to turn the power down automatically as the SWR rises to protect the PA?? Maybe start at a SWR of 2 and reduce to the specified limit by 3. Restore the power, ideally slowly,

Re: looking for non-US keyer chip
You can build around an Arduino chip or board, which you might get cheaper from a Canadian source for Arduino components?

costs.

Thanks, but the problem is almost certainly caused by the STM32 which

Hello Tisha
The MOSFET gates are particularly ESD sensitive. It's the Drain which is
