So I went back to Torroid Town and then finished up the primary board. But then I got excited and stopped taking pictures! Anyway finally result and by some miracle it hasn’t exploded. I will be testing it over the weekend hopefully!

I started working on building my QMX today. Most of today was visiting Torroid Town and installing most of the tiny components.

I’m winding enamelled copper wire on the FT140-43 toroid to make an EFHW. The workspace is cluttered with various tools and materials. I’m wearing glasses and The Phantom is embroidered in purple on my T-shirt.

Made progress on the 80-10 QRP EFHW antenna over the weekend and have now planned to make a 12V PD trigger for the #QMX by #QRPLabs. Tested Rx on it with the Silicon City net on 40m, thanks to VU3JIM, you can see the short video at: tilvids.com/w/buA81p7KLs...

Came home to a wonderful little package! This #QRPLabs #QMX has a nice build quality. Now onto making the PTT mic and an EFHW for it to make a nice #QRP backpack.

The new AI assisted mode in #FreeDV, #RADEV1, is building a following in SE Aust. VK3TPM runs a net on #40m and this morning 8 stations participated. I used my #QMX (5W) to make my first ever contacts on FreeDV and worked local stations as well as hearing a VK5 and VK7. #amateurradio #digitalvoice

The first test with an external #microphone for #SSB operation with the #QMX #QRP #transceiver

This was the easy part. Second part is making QSOs.

I opted for an after-work wander up Spartleton hill yesterday evening since the temperature was still in the mid-to-high uncomfortables... It was insect city up there so I'm glad I remembered the smidge!

Not too many in the log but good fun nonetheless.

Just playing with QRP labs radios today. Vertical MC-750, 3-4W and 20m got a good reach even the sun is throwing tantrums.

First time listened the QMX SSB and it sounds really nice!

On Mon 2nd I took my #QMX to three nearby #SOTA summits, Mt Cobaw, Camels Hump and Mt Gisborne and operated #CW and #SSB with good reports. The #CME affected 20m but 40m worked great and I got lots of contacts. The QMX is an amazing little #radio for performance, versatility and cost! #Hamradio

Well done Nick, I took my #QMX to three nearby #SOTA summits last Monday and operated #CW and #SSB with good reports. The CME affected 20m but 40m worked great and I got lots of contacts. The QMX is an amazing little radio and has inspired me to lighten the rest of my portable station! #Hamradio

Based on the hard work of Adam, K6ARK I designed a PCB which does all the work of the connections and designed a case for it.

I think it looks like a Turret from the game Portal, hence its name.

Yesterday I activated Mt Disappointment, VK3/VC-014 with the aim to test a #QMX on #SSB. The wx was cool & windy with a storm sweeping in from the N-W. #Antenna - link #dipole, power - 4S LiFePO4 battery via 12V reg. Only QRV on #40m SSB and made 8 contacts from the eastern states...

Playing around with FT8CN on the #Android #phone and #QMX #QRP #transceiver
Seems to work for #portable use
First make the mandatory #FT8 QSO for valid operation before #CW and #SSB fun starts.

Testing the #SSB firmware for the #QMX #QRP #transceiver
I don't have a decent #microphone so I took 2tone as input.

Original post on mastodon.radio

This might be unpopular opinion but I think QMX firmware is irritating to use. get it many times into a state that it just doesn't respond to most of the buttons.

Also if the SWR is exceeded, there is no error or anything showing this on screen. Hans said that there should be, but there isn't […]

As suspected, not only D108 but D106 died too. I ordered two sets of boards, but now I have to figure out WHY these two died. #QMX

Finally. The #QMX transceiver works. Ordered in August, arrived in December but no audio at arrival. An #SMD IC wasn't aligned and after some reflow, the QMX works. Just made #QSO with only 4Watt #QRP
