I replaced display to green revers OLED - it's so beautiful
Amateur Radio’s Field Day is the last weekend of June.
And this year it was my deadline to build and get my HF QRP station on the air.
I’ve been working towards this goal on and off, slowly but surely for over two years. While SSB and digital modes are interesting, I found the basic low power CW and minimal equipment to be fascinating.
I share my build and components...
Meshtastic, APRS, D-Star, QDX and getting back into radio
Ham radio is a cyclical hobby for me, and when the interest comes it comes fast and strong. And so it did several weeks ago…
It started with a trip to Wabeno, WI to help support the Wisconsin Dual Sport Riders annual Ride 4 Research. It’s a dual-sport motorcycle event held in the backwoods, where there is very spotty cell coverage. It’s one of the only (maybe the only) events of it’s […]

QRP coffee brewing with my new QRP ARCI mug.
Best side effect of observing Hamvention activities from afar is that I learned about this cool club, 64 years young, putting out a paper magazine, and hosting some of the most exciting minds in amateur radio at Four Days in May.
Congrats to fellow North Carolinian @qrper and QRP Labs' G0UPL on being voted in as new board members! https://www.qrparci.org

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!

I built a #QRPGuys 40-10 #Minituner a few years ago but never built a wire for it. Thanks to current #Geomagneticstorm conditions, I built a 40 -15 Meter Linked #EFHW that I can use with my #Youkits #YouKitsHB1B #HB1B and my #QRPlabs #QDX. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio is so much fun!
@bgarfoot if I can have only one, then it must do everything.
The IC-705 never appealed to me but the #ftx1 does.
If I can bring along an HT, then I would opt for the #lab599 #tx500 because of its ruggedness, and it being light weight and having a very low RX current draw.
If I want to go realy light weight, I grab the #qrplabs #qmx. Very high quality radio for small a price.
Keep your nose to the grindstone...and your transistors. Initial test of the QRP Labs QMX+ for extended use as a WSPR beacon = flying colors

Finally got round to getting acquainted with my #QRPLabs #qmx. For reasons known only to her, Pippi the #whippet has decided to get involved and is currently “helping”.

it's time to unwind

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.
And the loud POP sound when you start it up. It used to be worse but it's still horrible if using headphones. And I end up restarting it quite often as I get it to some weird state.
A new post on my blog about the building of the QCX mini from QRP-labs!
