Re: U3S transmitting- how to troubleshoot
Hi Ted
Wrong frequency. You entered the WSPR center frequency "USB dial frequency"
from the WSPRnet homepage. This is the frequency you set on a USB receiver
in order to get the WSPR 200Hz sub-band

Re: QCX kit #748 arrived today!
Hi Cory
It's not *that* bad... firstly, Karl's order wasn't placed 8th August (QCX
wasn't even launched until the 21st); he ordered it on 28th August. Typo.
Also... the density of orders was

Re: 30m Filter plots
Hi Peter;
This is quite interesting. I am waiting for my 20m QCX to be shipped. The question I have, does the 20m LPF experience the same or similar loss? Should the windings be -2 as you

Re: QCX kit #748 arrived today!
I ordered a 40m QCX yesterday (Nov 7th 2017), so that means I should receive mine somewhere around Feb 6th 2018.
I was emailed the order number ( #14,164 ) but I think there will be another email

Re: QCX 7mhz Output Filter
OK Alan, when I'm feeling brave I'll try winding a new version of L4, with 19 turns instead of 16 and let you know how I get on.

If you are confident in your power measurement then try 30m. The 20m LPF should not significantly attenuate on

Re: QCX T1 installation: A better way?
Hi Hans,
Thanks for that and info. That is exactly how I removed turns from my LPF, I just resoldered the lead to the top pad instead of trying to get it back in the hole, a lot less headache.

Re: QCX T1 installation: A better way?
Use a round wooden toothpick and put it through the molten solder, reheat
and jam it through. Bamboo toothpicks work great.

Re: QCX T1 installation: A better way?
I hope that's not too long.
You could test the RX on Dial 5.364700 (TX 5.366200+/-) as used in EU.
Conditions not been too good X-pond the last few days but usually signals make it OK.

Re: QCX T1 installation: A better way?

Just a quick observation. It is indeed VERY difficult to replace
components, or to take turns off toroids and get the wire back into the
hole when it is filled with solder. Here I do have

Re: Building QCX output filter first.
Chris,
Possible but not really necessary. A LPF does not peak, it is not really too critical. I'm not sure I've ever seen an adjustable LPF.
I guess if the inductors are too high then the amount of

Re: Building QCX output filter first.
Hello Peter,
I have never built one of these, but is it feasible to build an
external LPF with beehive trimmers instead of the fixed caps to bring
one spot on?
