I worked many years for HP/Agilent, so you can guess my suggestion!! Fortunately, it's just a power supply, so not priced crazy. You can also find cheap (garbage) but workable imported jobs on

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
The best solution is to use a good, resonant, low SWR antenna. I have made almost 500 contacts with my stock QDX (ver 5) and have had no issues. My QDX is powered by a 12v 1 amp switching supply. Jim

Re: Power supply recommendation wanted
Sorry Dave. I should have been more specific. I want a test bench power supply for construction and testing of QRP radios like the QMX.

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hi Bojan,
I've read a number of comments about an adjustable current limiting PS and I am wondering what you and others are using and would recommend.

Power supply recommendation wanted
I would appreciate any recommendations for a decent current-limited power supply. I’d prefer to stick with brands of known quality, but would appreciate any suggestions you might offer.

Thanks, Cliff. I don't have any left over from my RPIs, but I found
something on Amazon. I'm going to give that a try.

Re: QMX - smoke - another C107/Q108 failure
Thanks Hans,
A friend of mine recovering from two strokes built the QMX before joining this group (showing all the issues) and it worked to his satisfaction. He is sending it to me as a gift as he

Re: QMX - smoke - another C107/Q108 failure
Hello Dave
I don't think that is necessary.
With a lot of effort, messing around with a poor intermittent 12V power
supply connection, while simultaneously holding the left knob (power

Re: QDX - protection of BS17O PA
Hi Pierre,
my QDXs are built for +12V.
I am using these practices:
- added an antiparallel 1N4148 to L14,
- using a good +12V PS with a 1A current limit (and no higher voltage),
- matching the antenna
