Re: Dreaded dead transmit from SSB Calibration routine
Robert, did you measure using an external power meter? If not maybe something is wrong around T507. Please check this document ( /g/QRPLabs/wiki/36857 ) from the QRP Labs Wiki. 73

Re: Microphone pre-amp
Yannig, good idea. But the QMX delivers 3.3 V via 2.2 kOhm. To have 2.5 V for the IC the current must be not higher than 0.36 mA for the IC and the mic. Unfortunately the IC requires 2.3 ... 5 mA in

Re: Dreaded dead transmit from SSB Calibration routine
Thats strange that you get 4w+ at 60m??? Reset factory defaults to erase calibration?

Re: Dreaded dead transmit from SSB Calibration routine
Ludwig, Thank you for your reply. Please note my amended post above. I ran Diagnostics in Putty and see the following RF Output: * 60m - 4.3W * 40m - 0.6W * 30m - 0.5W * 20m - 0.2W * 17m - 0.1W * 15m

Perhaps you could buy a quantity, get a small discount and share the shipping cost with other hams. 73, Don N2VGU

Re: Dreaded dead transmit from SSB Calibration routine
Revision to original post... I just checked again and I'm actually getting about 4W on 60m but then it drops to 350mW on 40, ~100mW on 20m, 75mW on 17m and 0mW on 15m. Help! 73, Robert VE7ZN
