Hi, Skip Let's start with the basics. First - is your power supply big enough and bad enough to deliver an amp at 12 volts? A number of people have found that the output was fine once

Diz's kit (kitsandpart.com) 5W-A1 class C amp is a nice kit with only oe hang up for many that is the board only available as the kit has sold out. However if built its a full 5W out, has LPF and

I must be missing something , I have a U3S and I use the new 10 watt amp kit with it, just turn the drive down on the U3S and run it at just under 2 watts but , if I wanted turn up the drive and it

It's on the U3S Jeffrey. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Vernon, Is this on the U3(S) or on the QCX? I don't have the * character on the QCX. --Jeffrey On 5/10/19 9:39 AM, Vernon Matheson wrote:

Hans, Thank you for your thoughtful response. I fully understand what you are saying. While "software can do anything", the timing of all of the other more critical tasks must not be compromised.

Sorry I should have included the message from Hans. See message # 23905 in the qrplabs section of groups.io Vernon

At the end of the text insert *150* and that will give you 15 seconds of tone. The number is however long you want the tone. Vernon Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Vernon, What was the solution for this? This sounds like a useful feature. --Jeffrey

Hi Hans While you are responding about feature wish list, I posted previously an idea about adding a menu option that if a GPS is connected then it could append lat/long coordinates to a beacon

Agreed I am sure of issues and working through the diagnostics. Thanks AG4TD

The space in the rear is for an 18650 battery pack which I'll get done "one day". Then it will be totally self contained mainly for EmComm operations... BrianB N6CVO

Paul, Here is how I do it and it doesn't involve cutting any new holes. BTW-I've had no issues receiving GPS in most buildings including a number of EOC's. BrianB N6CVO

This is simply a diagnostic test. Looking for a 'bad' component. Not to be used to be connected to any antenna.

Bypassing an inductor with a wire link may increase the output by a small amount but it will then be including all harmonics. It is more likely that you have a construction issue

What IF you replaced a toroid with a jumper? Do you get 'better power'? You can remove/test any cap, too and see if that adjusts your output. Just don't 'test' for too long. de NT1G P.S. DUMMY LOAD

The enameled wire that I got with my QCX Kit is the same diameter as 28 AWG enameled wire that I have on a spool from Remington. Checked with dial calipers. Ken, KM4NFQ

I found my answer to my post…thank you.

Hi Jody The first of those I agree, it needs doing and would be very helpful. I notice it too. And sometimes when I double-left-click to adjust RIT, I forget to press the left button again... then I
