Re: USB Powered QDX ?
The official spec of USB 2 is 5V 500mA max. But probably many modern ports can exceed that. Regarding converter noise being an issue, if you power from a USB port. I agree and I prefer linear

Re: 10W HF Linear PA kit
I'm aware of that.? Have done it as well. Also it depends on bias setting and the winding of the transformer. By that I mean how tight and careful both windings are done. I look at it as

I yanked some bristles out of a wire brush but the steel stuck in the solder! I have some bamboo sticks that might be worth a try... -- 73 Karl KI4ZUQ

Re: #QMX first powered test -- is this right? #qmx
Despite the lack of a backlight, my computer recognized the QMX, so I installed the firmware and it worked (even got a backlit display).? Maybe the processor thought I was in firmware update mode

Re: QMX Audio Noise when switching to Digital mode
Thanks Gary. Unfortunately this issue appears with and without the knobs. I guess if I’m going to figure this out I’m going to need to become friends with the schematic and try to reason out what

Re: BNC connector doesn't work.
One possible problem is the cable has 75ohm connectors...? BNC connectors for the different impedance due to dimensions of the plastic insert and the pin.? Both parts must match. That and come

Re: BNC connector doesn't work.
Same experience here - leave the nut, but the lock washer prevents any BNC from fully seating. This has been true for 6 out of 6 rigs built by me. Sandy KB3EOF

Re: QMX Audio Noise when switching to Digital mode
Matt, I had a similar problem with my QMX when I had metal knobs on the encoders. An ESD event from my finger would cause the screeching. Try grounding yourself before touching the QMX ( I am assuming

Re: BNC connector doesn't work.
Remove the washer. Of all the QCX's I've built I've had to leave that washer off on all of them. -mike/w1mt wrote:

BNC connector doesn't work.
I ordered a OCX-mini 20 meter and had it built by QRP as I don't solder. Finally tried to connect coax and the connector will not close all the way. Same problem with a dummy load. So the unit is

I'm using a steel fixing pin. The pin takes no solder. Maybe you should grind a bit from the tip. 73, Ludwig

Re: QMX HIGH BAND NO RF OUT AFTER ANOTHER 10 hour WSPR TRANSMISSION
hi Michael, I don't know if it's a bug in firmware 16, but I also did a factory reset and it's the same thing, no RF output, while before it output 6W now it has a current absorption of 90 mA with the

Re: USB Powered QDX ?
So I tried it and it worked fine, same transmit power as my 12v battery (3.2w on 40m) . No issues whatsoever.

Re: #QMX first powered test -- is this right? #qmx
Thanks, Ludwig, good question.? The ViFly, with no load connected, registers 40mA on my bench supply's meter, same as with the QMX connected.? This implies that the QMX isn't drawing anything, so I

I really do not want to drill them, either. So, you actually got them to clear with the solder wick? "I soldered a capacitor in the wrong place on one of my kits and managed to successfully remove it
