Re: QMX+ Power Output Question
Greg,
I had to download the zip file version of Hamlib, that got it by Mcaffee.? Unzipping the file just to get the single .dll file I needed gave Malwarebytes a fit, so I disabled the anti-malware

Re: QMX+ SWR sweeps with SSB firmware?
You won't lose your calibration settings if you re-install v_027 of the firmware, unless you do a Factory Reset.
Firmware update preserves all compatible configuration settings across update

Re: QMX+ Power Output Question
It would certainly be nice for McAfee to fix it - I am pretty confident it is a false detection.
I checked the file with several other scanners; a couple had problems with it, others didn't.

Re: QMX+ rev 3 freezes shortly after boot
I would start by doing (from the Hardware tool page of the terminal app):
- LPF sweeps of each of the bands
- SWR sweeps of each of the bands
both with a dummy load attached.
But first make sure you

Re: QMX+ Power Output Question
Thanks.
I knew about that option but want to try the 'send to McAfee' option to see if I get a response and closer validation from them. Might help others going forward.?

Re: QMX+ Power Output Question
Greg, I had to turn off McAfee virus scanning while downloading the file and unzipping it.
After I had the hamlib.lib file out of the zip and deleted the zip, there was no longer a problem with it,

Re: QMX+ rev 3 freezes shortly after boot
Actually, now that you mention it, I am getting some strange power readings across all the bands, and my SWR readings are all over the place, even with dummy load & a tuned antenna.
Here's my power

Another QMX+ became SSB capable
Kudos to Hans - the beta was well worth the wait!
Thanks again to the folks that helped me earlier this year locate and replace the bad switch. I had not used the little beast that much after

Re: QMX+ SWR sweeps with SSB firmware?
Hmm. I just watched the external SWR meter during the "sweep" and it holds steady also. It is clearly not actually sweeping for some reason.

Re: QMX+ SWR sweeps with SSB firmware?
Thanks Chris, that is pretty much what I expected to see with my 6BTV. It's weird that mine seems to report the correct SWR for the band I select (as compared to my external SWR meter) but it shows it

Re: QMX SMPS issues, and a possible cure
Don (aka El Destructo),
Can you move that file at 700,000 files per second? Lol… your job sounds
like a ton of fun. Hope you’re using the proper PPE. :-)

Re: QMX+ SWR sweeps with SSB firmware?
Just ran a SWR sweep on a QMX+ running 1_01_003 into a Cobweb and got this:
It seems to be reporting about correctly, The Cobweb is designed for 20, 17, 21, 24 and 28m.
