Re: AA Battery Power for QRP Labs gear
Yeah, I¡¯m still sorry I didn¡¯t pick up several of those fire-alarm batteries at my local ReStore when they were only $1 each, they¡¯d be perfect for the QCX I have on order. Recycling is to raw

Re: QDX shipping update
I received my shipping notice email (from US stock) for order 50001 this morning. So in a week or so I should get the QDX. Maybe I will be able to build over Thanksgiving... We will see. Fred W0FMS/7

Re: AA Battery Power for QRP Labs gear
Mike I use a 12v 7AH battery from our own domestic alarm system.? It sits in a box on my desk, charged by a small solar panel, and feeds my QCX family and my FT817.? As you say, the security company

This is just an antenna switch. You supply a RX and panoramic display yourself. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Re: AA Battery Power for QRP Labs gear

Re: output alignment #20m #40m #power
Syd, I just finished a QCX+ (40M) build. I had to remove 7 turns from T1 to get the trimmer capacitor off the fully open position. The BPF (8.7) moved up as I removed turns. I did not bother going

Re: Panadaptor
Hi Paul Nice idea. But then the QCX-mini is by far the smallest part of the whole setup. Can you imagine having a panadapter as a separate box the size of QCX mini? Like Elecraft's KX3 + PX3 combo.

Panadaptor
This panadaptor looks perfect as an addition to the qcx mini etc. A description can be seen here:?https://youtu.be/jKqXBvsrGsI And can be purchased on Banggood.com at the moment for around 40 euros.

Re: QDX manual update

Re: QDX TRIFILAR STEP 2.12 Wind and install trifilar toroid T2
Hi George Yes, you are correct... T2 is a very important component. I like to wind my toroids as neatly and tightly as possible because it actually does increase the Q and that improves the

Re: QDX
Hello Hew I was a bit mystified by that... so had to look into it... I do not think you received your QDX. I think you received order 50607 which was two QLG2-SE kits. 50063 does not appear to have

Re: QCX Challenge - October 2021
I tried the 1300 and 1900 slots on 40m with no success. My cq calls did not register on the RBN network. Also my qcx mini rx decoder does not seem to work, I just get random letters even though I can

Re: My new QDX
May I suggest also checking that the CAT polling interval is 10 seconds. Rapid polling is not necessary on QDX because there is no way for the QDX to change its frequency by itself. Polling is only

Re: My new QDX
Hi Earl, I have noticed an issue with wsjt-x that no tx audio tones are produced from the pc to feed the tx on the first transmission or after a band change. Your QDX may not be the problem. I have

Re: AA Battery Power for QRP Labs gear
I still keep a good old sealed Lead Acid AGM cell on the bench, both a 5 AH and a 12AH. They are cheap easy to charge and take a bunch of abuse. Not that I abuse them. I can leave them on the float

Hello, This is a very important step. Hans has advised *extreme care*. I suggest following Han's method to a "T'. Looking over my workmanship in the 50 watt amp. I see I didn't take this seriously
