Everyone with a QMX will want to watch this video at some point. Great explanation, and thanks for showing how it’s done! 73, KD7DTS

Interesting. I have never tried FT8. I just got a QMX, so I many have to give it a try. 73, Patrick KF4LMZ

There is a bug in iFTX that it will not take 5 watts in the settings. The log can also not edited if you should forget to set the band. But it is cool to only use one cable between QMX and iPhone. It even works without a cable with transceivers with a mic and a speaker so that the iPhone/TRX can pick up the signals.

I’ve tried using iFTx on firmware v18. It cuts in and out of transmit about once per second in the 15 second cycle. Are all the settings in your QMX default except for VOX being set to On? Also, when SSB is implemented you won’t need to carry a mic, there is always built in mic in the QMX.

Actually just purchased my QMX in the last few days, and I'm going to use either my iPhone or My iPad with iFTX. My iPad actually has a USB-C port so hopefully I can use just a single cable to the QMX. This is an excellent video and very timely! I hope you try this again and get some contacts recorded. Many thanks - Gary G7TOK.
