Re: QCX+ Paddle Input and Homemade Antenna Tuner Questions #20m
I have run many 'portable' station in different places.? I use an inverted V antenna (just pull up the center insulator) and have not seen any significant difference in SWR as long as the top of the

Re: Progrock2 also causes QRM to GPS reception! #progrock2
Hi, to my opinion, this is not a Progrock1 or 2 question. It is simply a question of harmonics. And as it was said the proper measures taken. The Progrock alike chips generate a squarewave signal rich

Hi all My daughter, age 9, had her school science project fair today. Between XYL and Daughter they decided a U4B balloon tracker would be a good idea. Timing: poor (in the run up to Dayton). MANY

Re: ProgRock2 programming question
If you have sound enabled on the computers, do you hear any sound when you plug in the PR2? If not, then I would suggest to you the cable(s) or the board itself is the issue. If it makes a noise, what

Re: No Txco #u3s calibration #u3s
Hello Hugh It's still considered normal. With the Si5351A the frequency was normally within 1 kHz of 27.004 MHz. However the MS5351M appears to have lower capacitance and we find it is normally

Progrock2 also causes QRM to GPS reception! #progrock2
I previously reported on interference to GPS reception caused by a Progrock (1) unit - see post #92316. Well, I now find that exactly the same applies to Progrock2.? This is not really surprising,

Re: ProgRock2 programming question SUCCESS!
Steve, Sounds like what I do, put things aside thinking I will remember why:-) Good to hear it's going now. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Re: No Txco #u3s calibration #u3s
Hugh, I've seen 27.005+ reported, yours is higher than that. Might be a problem, I do not know. Note that the GPS does not correct for drift when transmitting. This has been a problem with non-TCXO

Sequence for Connecting QLG2 to QCX for WSPR Operation
Hi there, I have 40M and 20M QCX+s and a 20M Mini all with Firmware Version T1.09a. ?I am hugely thrilled with how well the QCXs pair with the QLG2 GPS receiver for WSPR operation. The units are

QCX Mini - Where to Probe for Frequency?
After having built four QCX+ rigs I was used to being able to connect the probe from my external stand-alone frequency counter to Pin 2 of JP2. Using that method I was able to adjust the Reference

QDX and Winlink might be possible #qdx
Hey All, I still have an unbuilt QDX 3a, but I got curious as to why Winlink won't work on the QDX, and it's been an interesting rabbit hole to go down. The ARDOP standard does have 4FSK modes, and

Re: QCX+ Paddle Input and Homemade Antenna Tuner Questions #20m
Thank you all! Pat: I have already made a dipole antenna, but am worried that once cut to length the tuning may change between setups, say due to the presence of nearby trees or being closer to the

Re: QCX+ Paddle Input and Homemade Antenna Tuner Questions #20m
For the QCX, you want the sleeve to be ground and the tip to be the contact. It¡¯s easier to use a tip/ring/sleeve cord but the settings also allow you to use a tip sleeve if needed. Then you have to

Re: QCX+ Paddle Input and Homemade Antenna Tuner Questions #20m
I bet there's something in the RSGB Handbook. For a 20M dipole antenna, you'll need about 5 meters of sturdy wire, a center insulator, and enough feedline to go from the center insulator to your
