Well just finished a QCX mini for 40m. Took about a day to build and then a hour to align and bench test.
First breath of volts brought it to life without any smoke and alignment went like a breeze. All spot on first time. Output at 12v was 4/5w so no fiddling with the coils. Before casing I added the AGC board and set that up without an issue.
First tests today netted a half dozen euro FD stations and a GQ special event station.
Very happy so now for a field test!!

Well done and you’ve reminded me I need to buy a couple of the AGC boards for mine.

FB this QCX! The AGC added is mandatory. I have a QCX+ without it and it i horrible when a strong chaser appears.

I have the same unit for 40m and really like it. Mine came preassembled and preforms very well. I would like to get one for 20m as well.

I have a QDX on order and once that has arrived and been completed I may look at a 30 or 60m QCX Mini. Already have a QCX for 30m as well.

This was the first QCX mini thread that popped up.
I’m hoping to get a QRP Labs QMX in the future, but for now I’m seeking a QCX mini. Does anyone have a QCX-mini they’re willing to part with? I’d consider any band, built or unbuilt. Even non-working as long as there isn’t much board damage- I could cope with the odd lifted pad/trace etc.
Thanks,
Colin, M1BUU
