Re: Low cost L-C meters
They exist. Well, not perfect, but quite good. They're called Vector Network Analyzers. They can give you very precise measurements of resistance, capacitance, and inductance over a wide range of

Re: Low cost L-C meters
The trouble with all of these LCR meters is rarely do they test at frequencies where you will be using the parts. The best solution ive found is to set up a test jig with my spectrum analyzer with a

Re: Sorry Re: [QRPLabs] Magnet Wire " of colour "
I bought some enamelled "craft wire" in a craft/sewing shop a few years ago and one packet proved to be of ALUMINIUM wire. I've since observed that flower arrangers and sewing shops are unaware of any

Re: Taking another stab at getting my 80m QCX up and running
deleted the old post to correct bandpass to low pass Correct (August). I completely hosed the range conversion up in my post. Here's what I see at the BNC jack using the 50¦¸ termination on the probe.

Re: Low cost L-C meters
Hi all, I use Peak Electronics LCR45. It is not cheap but it is good. The DCA Semiconductor Analyser is also good. www.peakelec.co.uk 73 Roger G4IUP.

Re: QCX#2019 lost RF power out?
Hello Bernd, Yes, I am checking those coils points to see if it might be that problem. I may have to pull the coils and remount them. ? I was hoping it might be something else that I was missing,

Re: WSPR failure
I put the WSPR on a Bob, However you check you are likely to see multiple "signals". The important thing is the levels of these compared with the fundamental as shown by the WSPR decoder. This is

Re: key short the first dash
Hi Viktor! I think it is a problem with key contacts. If you pass through the contacts of the 5-10 mA DC at the moment of contact, it destroys the thin oxide film and makes the contact more reliable.

Thank you both. I cannot decode but I do not believe that is the whole problem.? I have done Crystal/GPS alignment per the manual. I put the WSPR on a dummy load and disconnected the receiver antenna
