Re: 20m QCX RF Output Question #qcx
I removed 2 turns on L1 and L3 in QCX 20m. I removed 1 turn on L2. At 13.8V I now have 5.2W at 50ohm load. With the QCX 40m I didn't have to do anything and the result is the same. Zdenek OK2BQN

Re: Sending saved message #problem
Actually, for me sometimes the message does not start to send. I then can select it, but no matter what I press afterwards, the transmission just does not start ¨C it goes back to the normal

Re: QSX - antenna work in the rain
Ideally this work should be carried out later in the evening in failing light to ensure maximum inverse-adverse law effects.

Re: Sending saved message #problem
Hello, Roger. From the QCX 'Cheat sheet' : Encoder dbl or long press: choose stored message. Then Left to send repeatedly, Centre to send once, or Right to cancel? I would only add that, immediately

Sending saved message #problem
Had some good contacts with my 80m QCX CW TRX but having saved a message I cannot find how to send it. There must be an easy solution ? Roger Taylor G4CGU .

Re: Regarding QCX-series rigs, anyone out there bypassing the ATmega328P and directly freq-programming the SI5351A_MSOP ( SPI-style ) ?
Oh ! Thank you. I thought we were just being short-changed on the 73¡¯s for some reason. ;-) S. Sent from an electronic device.

72 is a 73 sign-off from a QRP operator. Jack, W8TEE

Just wondering...? This now reminds me of the progression that occurred with my freq-control apps ( see attached ) for the Small Wonder Labs DSW-II-series rigs back around the turn of the millennium.

Get down ! QCX-17 just made its first CW Q on 30m !
Thanks to John, KM0I in Mississippi for my first 30m CW QSO using the QCX-17 to the downspout, freq-controlled by the app, My_encoder_de_N4QA. OK, think I'll stop while I'm ahead... 72 / 73, Bill,

Re: QSX - antenna work in the rain
Hi, As promised... I got a fishing pole and weight and put the fishing line over the top of the oak tree outside my radio room. I used it to pull up around about 130 feet of paracord. And - as

si5351a U3 like compatible WSPR GPS integration
This is something I have been messing about with in support of a balloon project that a local club is working on. A lot of copy, paste, modify from a variety of other's work Some have asked for copies

Re: QCX 40 Woes
The original QCX used 10uF capacitors. Someone in an earlier thread showed that these were the cause of key clicks (to be correct, they were passing the clicks caused by the offset on the sidetone

Re: QCX 40 Woes
On the earlier kits, 0.1 uF works fine. On the Rev 4, it needs to be higher. If you use 0.1 uF on a rev 4 board you will get very little audio. Just my 2? and experience with it. 72, Charles - NK8O

Re: QCX 40 Woes
PCB revision 4 on Hans' QRP Labs page states that they have been replaces with 1 uf ceramic.... you have gone with .1 uf ceramic. Any real difference?... I have not done this YET... but I did point

Re: QCX 40 Woes
Mike, The first question is what revision of the board do you have? If it is 1-3 you need to replace the electrolytics C21 & C22 with 0.1 uF ceramic caps. That has worked on 5 radios I have built 72,

Try some freezer spray or a wooden cocktail stick to carefully prod connections.

Re: Qrp-labs and a Huff and Puff circuit board
Hans, Probably not. This sort of thing does have to be adjusted and interfaced to a particular radio. I could not build a stable VFO so used one of the PA0KSB design in a converted Decca Voyager,
