Julian, I'm in the non-directional beacon chasing league and the slow Morse, typical 10 WPM, of many stations can be 'read' from a typical SDR waterfall display. Like you, I translate the dots and

Thanks to everyone that responded. I actually have the original very sensitive QLG1 GPS Receiver with the antenna on the PCB. Not the QLG2 with the external antenna. Hopefully that QLG1 Kit will

I wish I could learn CW again. Three years ago, at age 69, I taught myself code using various apps. Played the letters at 20 wpm using Farnsworth spacing for maybe 10 wpm. Doing this allowed a lot

Good Morning All, I was informed of a little party that is tomorrow. It is called the Skeeter Hunt. It is for QRP Hams and I thought the QCX would be perfect for that. They have both phone and CW so

Did you find the on switch ? It took me some time to find it.

Well, QCX Multiband in 5th place in the QRP section. I am happy with that using 80, 40. 20 and 15 m. Antennas GP on 15 and 20, LW on 40 and 80. https://www.arifano.it/2021_results.html Martin DK 3 UW

Gordon and Rachael and others learning cw you are doing well Yes translating sound directly to a character is the way to go. I can't get any deeper into the process than that. When you see a letter

That's awesome, Jim. The satisfaction of communicating with something you built with your own hands is hard to describe. I hope you have access to a better antenna. I use both a vertical and an

Gordon, it's great that you're learning the code. I first learned it in 1990 but promptly left it behind. I refreshed the alphabet a few times in the ensuing 30 years but never used it over the air. I

Hi Joseph The 10W Linear http://qrp-labs.com/linear works well on 6m, Allison KB1GMX found its gain 4dB down at 6m. 73 Hans G0UPL http://qrp-labs.com

It has been over a year since the last QRP Labs newsletter which is very remiss of me indeed. It's been a very difficult period. Covid19 pandemic lockdown and all the family and staff challenges that

Julian Fascinating thoughts. I've been learning Morse during lockdowns, etc. since May last year and am in a very similar position; on that cusp between building up words and identifying them

Good morning Hans, thanks for the information. I wanted to know if among the amplifiers that are on sale there is any that I can use for 50 mhz, excluding the 5w PA. Thank you and good day. 73 de

Hi all We cleared the backlog of assembled QCX-mini and QCX+. We have some small stock of assembled units ready to ship, though most of them are still built to order. The delay should only be a few

Good, then, Brian, "we're one down and one to go". You mentioned in your first post that you saw an AC voltage a the top and the slider of the potentiometer; did I correctly interpret your notes? I

Something just happened to me, related specifically to the my previous comments on the issue of visual vs. aural replay, and I have to share it. My older son was playing a murder mystery computer game

Julian, Thank you. I had missed the DVM Power hook up bridge. Battery indicator is functioning now. Thanks for pointing out the pin out numbering. I was rushing to get out the door and felt I had

I have built a U3S with GPS and relay-switched LPF kit. I am having a bit of difficulty with Frame and Start. If I set Frame to 10 and Start to 02, for example, it takes the 02 start literally. If
