Thanks for all the tips. I spent a good part of the day today just inspecting my work, trying to make sure I had to cold solder joints again...I managed to get another 0.5 watts out so now it's up to

Re: QDX Experimental PA Simulation
I have attached a PDF of some work I did over the past few days regarding core loss modeling for my QDX. The result data actually covers 80-10 meters but I was looking at my high band unit when doing

You can add my first QMX kit to the list of blown MPCs.? I believe that I caused the failure by testing out of the provided enclosure.? Pressing the encoders and buttons can flex the boards if not

Re: Kudos to Jeff W1NC
Ya know, blown CPU's seem to be very common on the QMX (mine was blown, too!)
