Meant to say if I hit any F key...

I have 40m QCX+ set up with N1MM+ using Kenwood-Slow settings that others have suggested. The software sees the radio and the radio responds to changes from the software, but if I hit any F4 key in

My QCX-mini has been very forgiving regarding the headset in use. I tried several cheap ones. I made a stereo jack to mono plug adapter so I would not worry about shorting something when inserting and

Julian - Thanks for the advice. I had finally devoted some time to diagnose the problem. Checked the gating voltages as indicated - they worked appropriately for 20/30, 40, and 80. Then checked RF

Awesome Ernie. These are really cool little rigs. mike/w1mt

Completed QCX+ 17 meter build. Random characters at initial turn-on. I have working 20 and 40 meter QCX+ rigs and Hans suggested swapping out displays. I did so and all was OK. So, it appears the

Yes Bill another promised LIE for the M$ Corp. =( Free update .... not saying that they will write in different parameters for system operating system to use new resources only found on new hardware

After spending a career in sales and marketing I applaud Microsoft for it's success in the marketplace. But their products suck, cost too much and generally just aren't good so I've been a Linux nerd

Many thanks to Mike and Ron for their replies. I was under a preconceived notion that the RF output was a permanent reading, as I thought I saw that on my many hours of You Tube viewing. That

I have a dozen or so SMA attenuators I bought for 6 to 10 dollars each on ebay. See image below: They are rated to 6 GHz, and rated power is 2 watts. I haven't swept every one over the full 6 GHz

I finally got around to attempting to program the ProgRock today and I seem to have the same issue as described in the first post in this thread by Ian G4JQT. I am also using rev 1.02. The manual (for

MJ, Congratulations on the successful build! As Alan stated, the sweeps only work well with a 50ohm dummy load connected to the antenna. The filters need to be terminated in their design impedance.

Thanks to Alex and all who responded to my inquiry! I do not particularly like ear buds but I do have some around here that I could use until I decide what to do (I have to build and align the kit

Michael, 4--5 watts on all bands is the norm when built for and running at 12 volts. No need to change any inductors. I agree with Alan on just lowering the voltage if concerned. I'm running my 12

Ernie, in addition to what Mike said, the RF meter is only for temporary use. You can't leave it connected all the time or it might cause issues like excessive harmonics, etc. It's OK to leave the DVM

Michael, Into a dummy load? In any case 40dB is not too bad and no-one has suggested any way of improving the balance. Working well. Any attempt to reduce power by LPF adjustment will reduce

Hello, Ed, Here is what I use for music, video, and ALL my indoor transceivers and receivers (Koss

Unless you have jumpered the proper holes on the board you won't see voltage or power on the rig display. You can't connect both at the same time on the rig as there's only 1 A/D converter used for
