Jim, I don't know why but your post was very enjoyable maybe because of the simple truth of it. In any case, it made me smile! Thank you, Roy from Dallas WA0YMH

Question, is the real time clock in the QCX mini (40m) ok to use for WSPR or do you have to do something else for precise timing??????? 73 Colin VK2JCC

Curt, actually I already contacted the vendor today -- not because my shipment was "late' (which it isn't yet) but because the USPS tracking system is fouled up and that's NOT the vendor's fault. It

Jim Go to the merchant's website and make a friendly inquiry. Covid by the owner, parts, labor, travel, all kinds of things. Mine took some time for me to assemble. But okay to inquire. Curt

LOL!! I resemble those remarks, Colin. My QDX order was placed on probably the last day of this round's availability. The order system said about 30 kits were available before I started my order,

When I looked at the list of spots that I reported, sorted by power, about 50% of the are running less than 1w. The remaining 50% are three groups of 1, 2, & 5 watt users. About the same amount in

Daimon, yes I think the QRPLabs receiver with Polyphase module would be a good receiver for your project. I was also going to suggest you buy the audio filter kit from 4 States QRP club. It's

Hi Guys, just finished my qcx mini for 40m . I had a 2 month wait for mine to come to Australia. As someone said he is a one man band with 2 ladies helping. It just takes time. 73 make a cup of

Oops. I meant 2021. Otherwise my QSO hasn’t happened yet! … Ron

I'm a big fan of gaffer's tape and electrical tape. I mark all of my cables and such so there isn't any confusion.

Seriously Will I can see where there might be issues. I have equipment that requires 5, 9 and 12v and they all have the same plug and socket so I think that a simple color code would better serve the

Has anyone ever heard of using a multimeter to check voltages before doing a Murphy Check?

Many of my friends are on well systems which are sucking mud most of the time. I don't understand what they were thinking when deciding to build them here. Chip factories use so much of it, one has to

Geoff, As in the case of QCX, one can reduce the output power of QDX to a WSPR safe level by reducing the DC supply voltage below the design level for 5 watts (12 v or 9v—depending on the chosen

WOW, terrific news. Can you please explain how you reduced your transmit power to 200 milli Watts. When my kit arrives, I anticipate that it will be used on FT8 and JS8 at the 5 Watts but not on WSPR

Something to remember about Taiwan being a global giant in semico mfg: If (read WHEN) Red China invades Taiwan, one of two things will occur. Either the Red Chinese will suddenly own practically

Hello, I double check the toroids and an injected signal is going throw the filters to the FST3253 input. But nothing at the output.... I changed two times the FST3253 and had no success. Perhaps the
