#KitBuilding (currently QMX)
#3dPrinting
#3dDesign
#POTA
#Portable ham radio
digital modes like #ft8 #js8 #psk31
#CWOps
#MoreseCode
to name a few. I'll be posting mainly pics of POTA activations and kits I'm working on. Maybe some cats. I look forward to settling in to my new fedi-home!

I just ordered a the new QRP Labs QMX kit and I know from building the QCX Mini in Feburary that I'm going to run out of the solder I have before I can complete the QMX. I think I'd prefer something thinner, I had been using 0.8mm diameter, and to get a big spool that I can put in a desktop dispenser.

I’m not sure this is any improvement over the Dragonfly Red by itself but the end goal is to find a good amp design as the base to build the cross feed circuit on.

Judith Edge Hunslet 325hp 0-6-0DH 7mm progress. Body almost complete. Cab roof shaped and soldered into place, rainstrips added over cabside windows. Horn in place (on long bonnet end), windscreen wipers added. Just need to make access door and cab door handles.

Judith Edge Hunslet 325hp 0-6-0DH 7mm progress. Body almost complete. Noses joined to cab via the eight locations pins and a soak of solder between cab and faceplates. Cab roof to shape. Window surrounds soldered into place. Body is not yet attached to footplate and a boil, dry and undercoat. Probably paint before attaching as lights need to be fitted and wiring done ready to wire into decoder.

University student studying electrical engineering.
Radio(-adjacent) interests include #HF, #Contesting, #POTA, #3dPrinting, #DXCC, #QRP, #KitBuilding, and a ton more.
I post non-radio stuff @roguefoam - and more hobby stuff on Instagram @roguefoam574. Formerly on mastodon.radio, that account will be "defunct" for now.
Would love to chat about anything radio/electronics/hobby related!

My build’s coming right along! I’ll be installing the TCXO module next. I’m also wondering if now’s a good time to install the AGC module or if I should wait until after installing C24 right below it.

It’s new radio day! My QCX-mini has arrived and is now waiting to be built! This will be my first radio kit, any tips from other kit builders? I guess step one is to clear a work space. :alex_laugh:

All the smoke stayed in the QDX! If only I had an antenna at home to test it out.
I had to get a little creative for the case. #HamRadio #kitbuilding #qrplabs #QDX #workbench #qrp

431 followers · 582 posts · Server mastodon.radioGoing to start the QDX kit this week. Should I build the 12v or 9v version? 12v seems more versatile since that's pretty standard for most DC. 9v would be an ultra portable option. #HamRadio #KitBuilding

94 followers · 110 posts · Server mastodon.hams.socialGood news is, I suppose, it looks like the trace for that connection is on the bottom of the board, which appeared undamaged.
So perhaps I have a configuration issue, and not physical damage to the board to contend with.

90 followers · 88 posts · Server mastodon.hams.socialArgh! I am nearly done with the #QDX build but I have found my mistake - I accidentally put one of the capacitors in the wrong set of holes! (C14 in the antenna shield/center pin, for those familiar with the kit).
So I will now need to lay hands on a hot air re-work station, and probably source a couple replacement caps since I doubt I'll be re-using the one I made the mistake on. So close to completion!
