QRP Labs QDX Transceiver
« on: January 23, 2023, 10:57:45 PM »
   Does anyone have any experience with the QRP Labs QDX 5 band transceiver?  It seems to be a good way to get into digital modes inexpensively.  It also appears to be simple to set up, and with a notebook computer and an end-fed computer, it would be a very portable set-up.  I'm thinking it would be good for camping trips, or for emergency comms.

The QRP Labs QDX.  I have one on order.  Somewhere here, I have a little Dell notebook computer, which were popular before tablets.  The notebook probably ran on Windows XP, so I'm not sure what can be done with it, or if the battery even works.  I also have some old android tablets, again, not sure of their usability and whether they will work with the QDX transceiver. 

I'm interested in the (tr)uSDX transceiver too, but it'll have to wait a bit, as I need to catch up on some projects.  That's one of the nice things about Tennessee, we can usually continue working outside year round, without worrying about frost depth.
