Hi Roy
The circuits that drive the PTT tip and ring are all on schematic page 2
and they're physically located right under the 3.5mm PTT jack so it's easy
to find them. I'd look visually for any

Hi Peter
Yes as John said. It's an RF issue. It isn't resulted to the new firmware

Queston on the +5v on TX for PTT Out ... I'm wondering how much current can be safely supplied with +5V on TX. If I can't repair the fault in my QMX, can I instead use the +5v out to trigger a small

Thanks Hans, the iambic B now seems great, no hint of funny behaviour or extra dits.? The only other problem I'm having is that after a few minutes of QSO the 'G' comes on the screen and disables the

Hi Hans.
Thought I'd report my grounded PTT Out on TX test results here in a new topic ... that I suspect will be short lived.

Re: QMX no / very low receive audio in WSJT-X

Numeric gives more information. Two characters show 0-99 for example.

I think a waterfall is not as useless on this display as it first seems. It would make seeing nearby signals easy. Even 60x8 pixels could be useful. If the FFT bins were 250hz wide, you would only see

QMX, low bands, 4W in mobile antenna 1,5m length on my balcony fence.
QSO from Erlangen Germany to Tenesee USA, 7615 km. Not bad for so low power and so bad antenna.

The firmware EEPROM contents have a key which locks them to the firmware

Re: QMX no / very low receive audio in WSJT-X
Thanks for the idea, but the firmware is almost certainly not the issue here. I am, as my post indicated, using WSJT-X for WSPR, not the WSPR built into the QMX.
