Re: QCX 40, still waiting for parts before shipping? #qcx
Hi guys, Back in the mists of time Hans and I did 100 kits of the legendary three transistor 30 meter beacon to support his talk at FDIM. He sold out and had back orders so I took on the role of

Re: QCX orders
Hi Hans I'm probably in the last row of the kit (2695 and 3086). Are there any changes to the hardvare compared to the 23.Oct. 2017 Assembly instructions? Thanks Ivo, OK2SHI

Re: QCX keying issues with full/semi break-in settings. Advice please.
Derek well if you don't use semi-break-in keying maybe you don't have issues.? I would not think of something easily measured as instability, it could relate to actual capacitor values or even wire

Re: QCX keying issues with full/semi break-in settings. Advice please.
I can't speak about the waveform, but as far as key clicks in full break-in, there was a recent thread where it was suggested to replace C22 with a 0.1uF cap. I did this and it eliminated the clicks.

Re: CW decoder with 500 Hz center frequency
Hi Georges Yes, I will include this in the next firmware update. Bear in mind that the centre frequency of the hardware CW filter would need to be changed; the firmware will only change the frequency

Re: QCX 40, still waiting for parts before shipping? #qcx
Hi Bill Your serial number is 2637, not 2376. At the moment we are waiting for 1000 kits (batch 6 and 7) which are in transit from kit packer to kit shipper. It's a little later than anticipated for

QCX #249 and calibration issues #qcx
My QCX got past the long-press versus short-press problem (via replacing L5 with a 47mH), but now, I'm stuck in the calibration sequence between pages 64-65. ?When I tweet C1, nothing happens to the

QCX keying issues with full/semi break-in settings. Advice please.
Hi. Can someone suggest why one of my three QCX units produces a different CW waveform shape depending on whether or not the full or semi break-in option is selected. Testing and commissioning

Re: QCX 40, still waiting for parts before shipping? #qcx
Bill Perhaps best left as a mystery. Watch the website to see when your number actually ships out. As this is low cost shipping,? from the far east, much variation in how long it takes. But it will

Re: The Case #case
Thank you so much for your reply. Look forward for some hint when I get my kits. 73 de Larry N7LUF

Re: The Case #case
Hi Larry, All will fit nicely. I've actually modified the kit and made it an 11-Band version by adding an extra relay board to it. All fits nicely and I had room to spare to include a 5V power supply

Re: T1 wire gauge and length?
When I wound T1 for my 40 meter kit, I did it the way the manual suggests. Wrap it all in one piece with loops created for each of the 5 wrap secondaries. Wrapped the primary, pulled out about an inch
