Re: QMX on high bands?
Hey Mike - that would be an amazing set of bands when I'm out portable.? Nice balance between antenna size and usable bands both locally and DX when hiking. 73/72 Jeff - VE3CW / VA3JFF

Cremains of QMX #146 Offered Free to a Good Home
My QMX went up in smoke at my initial power up.? One of the voltage regulators on the buck power board blew. Prior to that, I was able to download the firmware using a 9v smoke detector battery for

Re: QMX #146 is toast
The row of boxes on the display is likely the "Contrast" pot setting (R47 I believe)....the manual doesn't tell you to turn/set it fully CCW for an initial setting.....i.e. Having boxes showing is

QMX #146 is toast
I was able to load the firmware with a 9v smoke detector battery as a power source. And I put electrical tape over the back of the power socket to keep it from shorting against the rotary controller.

Re: Putty
Does your computer recognize Progrock when plugged in with usb cable. I was working on a different kit but had a communication problem on the usb connector on the kit causing issue. Once i fixed that

Re: #QMX firmware 1_00_004 #qmx
Congrats on the FW progress! My feedback is that the FW update completed and the QMX rebooted and displayed 1_00_0004 on the screen. But the QMX was in a "hang" state and could? not be powered off

Re: #qdx firmware 1_10 release #qdx
It also works in WSJT-X. However, you can't select it, you have to type the whole string. 73, Uli DF7SC

Re: QDX won't load firmware...?
"I can even initiate a serial connection (with Putty, for example), and the acts like the port is fine. However, there is no response to manually entered CAT commands, and the QDX doesn't go into

Re: QDX won't load firmware...?
Also, to reiterate the timeline: the QDX worked great on-air for the first couple days after I built it. But after I put it into Terminal Mode (to run some of its internal tests), and shut it down

Re: QDX won't load firmware...?
Hi Paul, Thanks for the reply. I'm loading the firmware by just dragging and dropping files in the File Manager. Since I'm a Raspberry Pi, not Windows, I don't have that same Device Manager, but by

Re: #QMX firmware 1_00_004 #qmx
Hans, Thank you! That is a LOT of work done in quick time on top of all the rest that you have going on. I really appreciate the frequent updates. That said, yes, you do have a few more things going

Re: #QMX firmware 1_00_004 #qmx
I can confirm a new problem with FW 004 and fldigi. If using TxID the QMX reverts to receive in a second or two. The QMX has had an issue with Olivia mode with firmware 003 and before, but this is a

Re: QDX won't load firmware...?
When you say you loaded the firmware in bootloader mode, you mean from the PC to the QDX using the DFU tool? That probably says the MPU and USB /connections/ are working correctly. If you go into

Upgraded from 002 to 004 and now wsjtx will not tune for more than a second and transmit will not work for more than a second. Reverting back to 002 and tx works normally.? did a factory reset in 004

Re: QDX won't load firmware...?
Hans sent me a factory EEPROM file, and it loaded onto the QDX in bootloader mode, but unfortunately the serial port is still non-functional. Is it documented anywhere what the 5 header pads are at

Re: QCX+ R50, R48 question
Yes that R48 resistor is the feed to the display backlight LED.? Depending on what supply you are using, there is 10V or more across the 270 ohm resistor which will dissipate around 0.4W (depending
