QRP-LABS Low Pass Filter upgrade
Hans,
I found in past posts that your LowPass Filters could safely handle 10 Watts.
I have a 1.8mhz-54mhz 100W amplifier that I am searching to add switchable LPF's to it.
Is it possible to update

Re: getting high voltages

Alan,
I'm not sure if the display still works, I unplugged power as soon as I saw smoke, and IC3 immediately starts smoking once power is supplied. I will replace Q1-3, Q6, and IC3 and then try.

KN6HGG,
I did have a dummy load attached. I had plugged the GPS in prior to plugging in power, but the lights on the GPS didn't power up, so when I wiggled the leads from the GPS, they slipped out

Re: 80 meter bpf toroid winding 30 turns givel 4.3 micro Henrys, not 3.8
take another careful look - if any apparent damage is limited to the low pass filter section of the board, with a little wire you can replace the traces. many of us struggle somewhere on these kits.

Conner
let us know what it up with your rig, and okay to email me direct (see qrz) if you are still having issues.
C1 tends not to be extremely sharp - but I have no personal experience with the 20m

Re: Select Button on Alignment QCX+ 20m
Richard,
Check voltages on pin 25 of the 328 when pressing the buttons. Button presses give different voltages.
I'm not sure but they should be mentioned somewhere in the manual.

I had the same problem, turned out it was a cold joint on the button.

Re: Unknown component board
Yep, boost or buck converter with adjustable voltage+current, and a high wattage one judging by the inductor size. Most likely boost converter, but the easiest way to find out is to hook it up and use

Connor,
"Added a 104 cap where C5 goes, and the BPF moved to an "8" and stayed there. Did not change at all in reaction to trimmer setting with the extra cap in place." -
A 104 capacitor is 0.1 uF

Correct, it is a buck/boost. See here:
