QMX - New 5 Band TRX from QRPlabs (Part 2)

[DL6GCA]

Hallo Ludwig

@DH8WN

A TRX for the CLASSIC 5 would be a nice thing.

I had a completely opposite idea…

I always wanted a SOTA TRX for 17 / 30 and 60m

I am really happy with my KX 2 and can not imagine giving it away. On many contest weekends the “classic” bands are so full that SOTA on these frequencies is no longer fun for me. There are some small CW QRP TRX with several bands… unfortunately some, which I do not like then. My dream was always to have a small SOTA CW TRX for 17/30/60m… as long as there is none… I just take three! I am a friend of LowePro viewpoint bags… unfortunately this series was discontinued…but you often get them se…

Hello Armin,

@I always wanted a SOTA TRX for 17 / 30 and 60m

why not. For each band one LPF and the ratio from the highest and lowest frequency is lower than the ratio for the low band version.

A new version of the firmware 017 is available. Hans did a great job

S-Meter and AGC have been implanted ( for CW operation). There are a lot of parameters with AGC but it works !!

I had a small bug after the update… RX was very low … I think that the audio gain in the Band Configuration menu (terminal mode) was not very well initialized. Reading their values in this menu resolved everything.

More tests in the field Wednesday during SOTA activation !!!
