Writing anything to this group demands a little thought, most people seem to be starting in the hobby so don’t have the experience or piles of materials that others have. A little enamel

Hi Alison, No worries. Of absolutely no interest to anyone.... email was sent prior to a read through, wasn't supposed to have cryptic initials, more like things for me to

From: Rick Barnich Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 09:53:21 PDT ... The problems and delays were always caused by changes and new features. I would 2nd that: feature

Which makes my request unnecessary and is what I had expected anyway, thus why I hadn't bothered to ask it till now. Its all good : -) From: Hans Summers

I wasn't willing to assume I could run the rig without the LCD connected, but if it is safe I can see that as an option. Thanks! I think it would have been better for me if I could have built it up in

Alan, No foul intended. The KB1OIQ was based on arduino and I've pushed him to consider as a possible mod to output cat controls as a front end box for cat enabled radios. His not doing this is a

All, I am a casual follower of this forum and was excited to see the QSX announcement. The ink was hardly dry and the requests for additional features started pouring in. If you recall, when the QCX

I always scrape enameled wire, and have never had a problem with breakage.  Use the *back* side of the Exacto blade or a razor knife to reduce chances of nicks.  That side is duller, but scrapes

Hi Dave Apologies if it is not clear. 1. Basic: 40m transceiver. It could be built for any HF band with appropriate BPF and LPF components. 2. 10-band filter board option. 3. Enclosure option. 2 &

I burn the enamel using a butane lighter, remove the residue with fine grit sand paper, and then tin the wire. It works quite well. 73, Art WB8ENE

I have been thinking the same thing, that it'd be nice to add a battery and perhaps an ATU. I suspect others might also have this thought too since these are offered by other radios with similar size

Am not fond of heat-stripping enamel wire. Yes, a hot soldering iron can eventually strip off the enamel. Applying solder liberally helps this process. But a mess of burnt residue usually is left,

Here is Charley's most recent summary.............. 73 Kees K5BCQ

Several years ago, one of the AQRP members developed a standalone transceiver for PSK-31 and later added SSB. It utilized the HobbyPCB Transceiver as the RF frontend and a STM32F746G for the

Hey There Greg! A length of #28 sixteen conductor ribbon cable will work. How long of a piece do you need? Reply off the group (or whatever you call it). My e-mail address is on QTH.com. I'll get

Do you need to extend it? Can you test with it removed? If you do not need to see it then it will do no harm and will not affect operation. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Easiest/ fastest/ cheapest solution might be to make up two 7pin/conductor cables using a male and female straight header.

Hi Alex The optional aluminium enclosure has external dimensions 145 x 68 x 74mm. I can provide the cross-section diagram in due course. 73 Hans G0UPL http://qrp-labs.com

The easy way of tinning self fluxing enamel is to apply iron tip and fresh cored solder to the cut end of the wire. The solder reacts with the exposed copper, the coating then melts back and the

I hope that later that Han's gives an idea of the case dimensions and what volume is taken up with the internal circuitry in the full all band version. Why? just to get an idea if
