K6JTH's versatile stand for the QCX-mini
Colin, I would like to be added to your list. Is there any way to get an extra set of the stands? Dave, W0DF (good in QRZ except zip code is wrong, should be 63303 vs. 63301)

Audio gone - QCX Mini - maybe dry joint
Since you pulled the QCX off the desk with your headphones, first place I would check would be a broken lead in the headphones. Do they work on another radio, then check the headphone jack on the QCX

What is the actual "success rate" for home built QCX+ radios?
Keith, I'm wondering what the reason is for your question about success rate. Did you buy one and can't make it work to your expectations, or at all? Are you contemplating buying one but doubt your ab

does anyone believe?

Nope, I believe there will be Chinese copies of Jack (W8TEE) and Al's proposed new transceiver on Ebay before we see (if we ever see) a QSX. I gave up on it years ago. From a business stand point, why

I found a nice inexpensive little twin paddle key for qcx mini

For those looking for great keys, large or small, you should take a look at N0SA's QRZ page. I can attest to the fact that his craftsmanship is second to none. Dave, W0DF
