Allison's departure from the QRPLabs group-- please stay.
The only opinions that have a place on this forum are QPL labs related. There are a host of other portals to air unrelated views. I for one really hope Allison reconsiders. Ted 2E0THH

A QRP antenna tuner for QCX Mini
#qcx
#antennatuner
I built a Z match tuner from a circuit which is almost the same as the Emtech. It was a fun build and the component cost was very low. It also helped me better understand the theory behind it as well.

Martin Send it to me and I will fix it for you. It won't be immediate as I have a expertly butchered HRO on the bench right now. See QRZ for my address, I am in Suffolk, UK. 73s Ted 2E0THH

Switching single antenna among several radios

Thanks David You are completely right of course but for my QRP needs I am hoping it will work ok. I went for a 6-bank relay with a simple rotary switch in the end, which will be powered from an extern

Hi David Thanks for the interest, I'll get some bits ordered! I think I'll just use a cheap rotary switch to fire off the (8) relays. Nothing like a bit of redundancy. I'll use the same enclosure as t

Let me know how you get on Gerry. I probably won't get a round to building mine until I finish restoring this HRO. Quite enjoying learning about valve circuits after a lifetime in silicon! 73s Ted 2E0

Hi Gerry Here you go. I haven't built it yet but should work ok with QRP transmitters. I have many receivers now so this will probably be an 8-way in the end . I found this YouTube video for anyone no

Kyle There are 4 little metal tags on the back of the display that actually hold all the layers of the display together. I had a similar problem to you and a tiny tweak with a pair of pliers sorted it
