Using the QMX+ with an auto-tuner
I am using my new QMX+ with the HardRock-50+ (HR-50+) amplifier with its
integrated ATU.
The ATU requires a bit of RF energy to trigger the tuning procedure.? So, one
pushes the Tune button on the

Re: SOTA QMX SSB
Hi Roger,
Looks like a nice setup. I am wondering what tuner you are using in the photo?

Re: QMX+ Transmitting on 10m but no receive
Okay I think it was my antenna, I haven't even weirder problem now. As soon
as I start transmitting after around 3 seconds, the whole qmx just turns off

Re: shorted PA on TX, dead SMPSU?
Chris, first half of tests was done with smpsu boards removed from main board.
Second part, pressing the power switch, was re-assembled.

Re: CW Practice / Rag Chew
My antenna system is rather compromised at the moment, so I'm not sure whether I will be heard, but I will try!
Thanks for organizing these, Ed.

Re: shorted PA on TX, dead SMPSU?
Dan,
never ever run a QMX with SMPS boards if the off line tests are not ok!!!
It looks like a short at VDD (or a faulty PCB#2).
Please remove all subboards and check resistance at the mainboard

Re: QMX+ For Sale
I am interested and tried to send another email. The first one I sent bounced. Not sure if it is on your end or mine. I did get your email and attempted to reply.

Re: QMX+ Transmitting on 10m but no receive
There is plenty of 10m activity on FT8 right now, at least where I am.? Check your audio card settings.

Re: shorted PA on TX, dead SMPSU?
Hi Stan
Thanks for the pointers.
I got hold of a current-limiting PSU, and did the tests suggested in the wiki here: /g/QRPLabs/wiki/37128
on PCB#1:
step 2, I got Vcc = 4.1v

Re: com port conflict
About the best option for sharing physical COMM ports is using TCP/IP.
WSJT-X has a radio option for it, and most logging programs will also connect to it.
There is also a hardware option - create

Re: Software Development and Requirements Creep
Either way would have been fine.
Releasing SSB firmware for 80m only, no CESS, limited menu, no support for CW or digital modes,
