Re: Easy lithium battery for QCX
Sorry, I meant to say QSX, so it should be suitable for either of the QRPLABS offerings.

Re: Easy lithium battery for QCX
That should be within the realm of QCX power though, right? A 10W SSB rig should draw under 3A average by a pretty good margin.

Hey there, Nigel.
Not having a stock QCX-30, I can't speak to its performance on other bands.
But, as for my stock QCX-17, I have enjoyed more QSOs with it on 30m than on any other band...would love

Re: Multi band QCX plus Party time...
There are 3 parts of the QCX that are band specific: input tuned circuit, output low pas filter and class E amplifier.
I also have a 30m QCX. We should have QCX activity that isn't a contest so that

Hi Al
Yes. Non-critical. The most non-critical place for the low one would be C21 or C22.
