Re: Source of QDX Fused Power Cable with Powepole Connectors #power
Hi, Geoff. I saw the fuses as an added bonus, I was just looking for a 2.1 plug with Powerpoles on the other end. The seller has always sold good quality items, so wanted to highlight the item, for

Re: QDX went "bang", literally, Q10 blown
Tom, Could you describe what "going hard for a couple of hours" entailed? What voltage do you operate the QDX and what's the typical current draw during transmit? Thanks! --Al WD4AH

Best idea yet - QOTA Worked my QTH. I'll post on the web when I activate and sit back and enjoy the pile up of eager hunters anxious for the prestigious Worked All QTH award. -- 73 KD8CGH

Re: QDX lost 30m and 20m rx/tx #qdx
Mitch, From what you describe it seems like you've got a poor solder joint somewhere along the 30/20m LPF path. So, a close visual inspection of the board around that area is a good place to start

Re: "Walmart Parking Lots on The Air" - WOTA
Jim, Andy probably meant *Wainwrights* on the Air, found at https://www.wota.org.uk/. They are hills, in or near Cumbria, and very much associated, in my mind at least, with stout walking kit and

QDX went "bang", literally, Q10 blown
My QDX had been going hard for a couple hours, when it made a frightening bang while transmitting. After examination, I saw Q10 had a crack in it. I imagine this was from excessive heat, plus the

Re: QDX lost 30m and 20m rx/tx #qdx
The solution to this interests me as my QDX was working fine (I run it 24/7 with JS8CALL) and then suddenly, 40m, 20m and 30m all stopped working TX and RX, whereas strangely 80m is still working

Jack, I live on a 600 acre lake and have thought of doing that many times using my 15¡¯ fishing boat. It hardly gets used any more. In fact I spend more time cleaning it than I do fishing in it.
