Re: QMX Heated Up, now no output
Tom, Reheat T501. I had same problem. I don’t think that the QRP Labs scrapes any of the toroids wires and depends on the solder to dissolve the varnish. It took quite a while and higher

Re: QMX Heated Up, now no output
Depending on the quality and brand of power supply and what happens when it sees a load of RF coming back down its cable that's definitely a potential issue . . (50 years experience has taught me

Re: QMX Heated Up, now no output
Just an idea: Maybe there are power-supplies that don't like HF and change (increase) their output-voltage.

QMX Heated Up, now no output
Using the same power supply (11.8v via BUC converter) and same antenna (Resonant 40m) that had been working for an hour, suddenly the unit quit putting out RF and when I put my hand on it it was very

Re: Should I be disappointed?
You are obviously free to go and build what you want, but there is no practical difference on air between 3-4W and 10W. I would get on air and make a few dozen contacts in the time needed to get a 10W

Re: QDX Died shortly after arrival #qdx
Just a hunch...? The BS170s seem to? be the most sensitive, at least to power levels ... maybe heat too. Nothing like FT8 to generate heat. -- 72 de N4REE, Bob Easton - QRP CW forever

Hello Evan, many thanks for your hints. I measured the voltages at the parts you mentioned: Q4: Gate 7.29 V? (TX 7.34 V) Source 14.24 V (TX equal)? (I saw with a loupe that Drain is not connected

Re: Solder
Hi Daniel, fully agree. The higher temperature requirement can be problematic. When I'm soldering connectors I also open my secret drawer with the remaining 60/40, to avoid melting structural

Re: WSJT-X on Raspberry PI 3B and QMX+ unstable
I would check the USB cable, I have come across cables with poor shielding, i.e. they catch/are affected by RF.

Re: Solder
Dirk, agree, the Sn95,5Ag3,8Cu0,7 ( I use a Kester product) works well. However you do have to use higher heat. I have used the lead free for a lot of projects, but for the QMX I went back to 60/40 Pb

Re: Solder
As of 2021 the US Army, at least, requires 3% minimum lead content in solder to prevent whisker formation. https://www.psmagazine.army.mil/News/Article/2567624/get-the-lead-outnot/
