Re: My QMX+ has a .3 ohm short on VDD
Dear Greg, I didn't believe it but the GPS module did short out the Vdd bus.? I put a piece of tape over the jumper and now that doesn't happen.?? Hoping I was now past that problem I turned it on

Re: QMX+ Power Increasing Question
Hi Greg, this is important. And I needed some time to think about your last post. The outputs from IC503 are better. How about the waveforms, something like rectangular (with smooth slopes)? Is the

Re: QMX for 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, & 10 Meters?
I agree with Nate. You can configure it in the firmware, and you can build something. But sharing filters between multiple bands involves compromise. I think 40-10 would be a compromise too far. It

Re: QMX WSPR fault
David, The usual issues with WSPR on QRP -Labs products are incorrect frequency and incorrect time setting. The frequency should be close enough on a QMX with the ovened crystal, so check how

Re: QMX tuning is wacky all of a sudden
John, you may use a terminal session to go in "Update firmware" or you use the hardware method (see operating manual). Did you check the functions of the controls via terminal session "Hardware

Re: QMX for 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, & 10 Meters?
With 3 LPFs available, I think it would be tough to cover 40-10 meters adequately. That's likely why Hans' latest version doesn't cover beyond 15M. I built a QDX for 40, 30, 20, 17 and 15m. Used one

Re: Request for semi break-in CW for next QMX firmware release, please.
Thanks for your very quick reply Hans. Yes, I saw the option for semi QSK in the menu and have noticed it non-functional. I hope you can find the bug some day, but I know you probably have lots of

Has anyone built a QMX to cover 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, & 10 Meters? I'm interested in the band and filter combinations used. Thanks - Dave, N4ELM

Re: Request for semi break-in CW for next QMX firmware release, please.
Hello Larry Semi break in is already supposed to work in QMX, as the code was inherited from QCX. For some reason (a.k.a. a bug) it doesn't work. Semi QSK is a lot easier to implement than full
