Re: QMX+ shutdown problem #qmx #QMXplus #shutdown
Randy, something is strange. Early you wrote VDD is produced by the linear regulator. LIN_REG_EN must show some volts to connect IC101 to "+12V" via Q102. Your schematic shows 0V at LIN_REG_EN.

Kai, I guess Jeff will help. After repair it would be nice to read, what he found. 73 Ludwig

Re: QMX only hearing static
Ludwig, I do not have the ability to use a variable power supply, so I did not test as you wrote earlier. I am going to reach out to Jeff Moore and see if he's willing to help fix it as I do not have

Re: Power out on 60 mtr QCX+
Keith, I don't think you needed to take any turns off L1 or L2. Yes, please watch the video Evan suggests. Hans shows his technique for doing the adjustments without cleaning holes in there as

Thank you Hans for responding. I will try Stan¡¯s solution for now.

Re: QMX+ shutdown problem #qmx #QMXplus #shutdown
Thanks Stan. Let me clarify a couple points. Correction of my statement: At the drain of Q109 is the PWM'd square wave that alternates between 11.9 and 10v. On the other side of the filter at the

Re: Newly assembled QMX, SWR=1.5 with dummy load
If you are worried about series inductance of resistors, best to build a 50 ohm dummy load of all parallel resistors.? ?Not a series combination of two sets of two 50 ohm resistors in

Re: QMX+ shutdown problem #qmx #QMXplus #shutdown
This might need clarification for some: Lifting one end of a resistor or cap or diode can rip the opposite pad off the board. That will ruin your day. Usually easy enough to repair by running a wire

Re: QMX only hearing static
I have to correct. Checking my repair records I found one case with a broken IC403, not clear why broken. 73 Ludwig

Re: QMX+ shutdown problem #qmx #QMXplus #shutdown
Donald, you are right. It#s good to tell this. I'm doing this only for some SMT packages e.g. small diodes (SOD323), small transistors (SOT23) and some tantalum capacitors (yellow). All of these have

Re: Newly assembled QMX, SWR=1.5 with dummy load
Adding Chris's BAT41 and 0.1uF cap to read the peak voltage with a DVM is a good idea, will work great for a QMX. Han's 20W dummy load does the same, but uses a 1n4004 diode, good for 400 Volts,

Hi Ronald Many thanks for your reply. I have tried adjusting all the low pass filter windings and have taken 0ne turn off each toroid. At first I could only get 1 watt out and after adjusting the

Re: QMX: C107 burned
Daniel, Without the SMPS boards, I measure a resistance of only 250 ohms on the mainboard between PWR_HOLD and GND. PWR_HOLD is connected only to pin 53 of the processor. I therefore conclude that
