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!

Re: QDX lost 30m and 20m rx/tx

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: QDX lost 30m and 20m rx/tx

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
