Re: Introducing QMX CARROT
You can also clear the 'S' by entering and exiting the menu system, no power cycle required

Re: QMX receiver went deaf
Ok. ?I will check that this evening. ?But even when the signal level was at -33dbm there is no gain from the input to the output of ic405 or ic406, ?in fact I believe there was nothing at all on

Re: Introducing QMX CARROT
Heinz, the antenna is a 20m long EFHW and, as is well known, can be used on 7 and 14 MHz. The resonance circuit (Fuchs circuit) transforms from 50 ohms to an impedance of approximately 3k ohms. I've

Re: Loading QMX+ Firmware
Hello Ron, if you see two files in firmware upgrade mode (jumper set) the QMX starts for the first steps. Firmware 1_00_027 is loaded already. When jumper is removed the QMX should start when pressing

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
But VDD isn't at the pin header to sub-PCB #1. Or did you check also for PCB #2? Check voltage at the pin PWR_ON (sub-PCB #1). There should be a voltage near the input voltage when volume encoder

Loading QMX+ Firmware
I have not been able to see on the initial first power up any means of loading firmware on my QMX+ radio. I was able to see some evidence of 2 files on E drive which is the USB drive on my computer by

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
I can confirm that voltage does make it to plug in PCB #1. I did notice that VDD has continuity to ground when checking for shorts on the pin header. Nothing visible was identified

Re: Newbie with battery question
DROK and others make buck-boost units which will increase OR reduce the voltage input to output. I use this fixed-voltage one with my 4S LiFePO pack which can go as high as 14+V fully charged, or

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
Realy not when pressing the volume encoder? In this case please trace the voltage from the socket to plug-in PCB #1. Via the Wiki document you will find a sketch of the contacts to the SMPS boards. 73

Re: Newbie with battery question
And, in the case of 9V, will waste half of the battery power as heat, 12V wastes 1/3, etc.? OK in some cases, probably not OK if you are carrying the battery to a mountaintop. 73, Don N2VGU

By the way thanks. I¡¯ll follow this document and see if I can¡¯t get the processor to load firmware

Re: QCX Mini Displaying //???/??/
Figure I'd update this with a conclusion: The reset procedure sent by Ron worked perfectly but did not resolve the issue. Screen would appear to work normally about half the time and then would error

Re: QMX SSB low output
Same issue here with mine.? Both QMX and QMX +.? ?I believe all setup is in order. Power out is only about 2 watts or so on 20m and 40m. No one responds to me. Put me in the puzzled column.

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
One more question. Please tell us the supply current before pressing the volume encoder, while pressing and after release. 73 Ludwig

Re: QMX receiver went deaf
Like Stan wrote before, it looks like IC405 and IC406 are in overdrive state but not broken. It would be the first time reading about broken ones or find this when repairing a QMX(+). Please check

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
That¡¯s another part of my issue. My pc doesn¡¯t seem to recognize the QMX being connected. So I¡¯m having difficulty loading that in. I checked and reflowed the solder points on the USB C port on

Re: #qmx #troubleshooting #troubleshooting #qmx
Hello, please read this document ( /g/QRPLabs/wiki/36878 ) from the QRP Labs Wiki to see which signal should be at which value at which time when starting a QMX. 73 Ludwig
