Please use the instructions that came with the kit. There were major improvements to the kit design about 3 years ago, and the new revision has a lot of different parts.

Re: QRPoMeter
I bought the kit at the 2019 OzarkCon in Branson. It has BNC connectors instead of RCA connectors.

GA Ross, yes, please! No, I don't have a set price. But I would rather buy a 5Watter and 2 QCX and a BitX20 for $ 250 than a OHR 500 for $ 250. More bang for the buck kinda thinking. 72, Chris KF6VCI, HS0ZFE, MI1ESG

Re: Nouveau 75 frequency selection

I'd check the connections to the encoder (tuning control) to see if something is not right.

Howard Hoyt
Hi all,
I know there is quite a bit of overlap between the 4SQRP and Elecraft KX groups, so I wanted to tell everyone the Yahoo Elecraft KX User Group has moved to Elecraft-KX@groups.io. Please post any new content in the io group, and if you are interested but not yet a member, we would love to have you a member there as well. Cheers & 73, Howie / WA4PSC

Nouveau 75 frequency selection
Fun kit to build and very professional looking when completed.
However, having just completed the construction, I was surprised to discover several issues. The facts: First, and most importantly, the receiver opens with the no 75 message and defaults to the frequency. Unfortunately, it only tunes 3.839 to 3.840 (the default frequency) and no other frequencies. I cannot select any other frequency. Second, depressing the tune button does not dim the display (not a big concern) but it does allow me to bring up the 1.901 or 1.902 setting. Third, the LED does dim with a strong signal present as from a signal generator. Fourth, I do have audio from the speaker and headphone jack. My question is what may be the cause of limited frequency selection? In advance, thanks! Fred, K8IG

Re: QRPoMeter
nm0s_qrp <ai9e_qrp@...>
So the important question is, do you have a new (NM0S) kit, or an old (4SQRP) kit? The 4SQRP kits came with RCA connectors. The old kit used ceramic monolithic capacitors, and included an 0.001u for C3, while the new kits use ceramic disks, and C3 is 0.1u. The instructions are very different between the two versions.

Re: 3D Printing
Nicely made.
I took a similar approach on my QCX. A 2 piece case. QCX Pic It doesn't apply here but for outdoor use use white if possible. Been using Fusion 360 for 3 years. -- 73 Dave k0mbt Ham_Made_Keys

Beautiful! Which CAD software do you use/prefer?

From: main@4SQRP.groups.io [mailto:main@4SQRP.groups.io] On Behalf Of Robert via Groups.Io
Sent: Sunday, October 20, 2019 7:16 PM To: main@4SQRP.groups.io Subject: [4SQRP] 3D Printing
Not long after the 2019 Ozarkcon someone suggested that owners of 3D printers in the club submit a sort of “show and tell” regarding their experience with 3D printing. Several members complied.
I was dealing with a health issue at the time (at my present age of 91.3 years that happens a bit more often than when I got my ham license in 1952) and I never got around to writing. I have had a 3D printer - two, actually, but one cratered - for several years and have designed and printed a wide variety of things, many just for fun, others for practical application.
The 3D printed upper and lower parts of my loop antenna were on display in the flea market at Ozarkcon. Very few people were interested in the loop and so the 3D parts mostly went unnoticed.
I recently developed a simple but effective 3D printed rack for my KX3/PX3 combo that lets me more clearly see their faces from a comfortable seated position. Several photos that show the thing in use and also in its bare bones are embedded in this message.
If you have a 3D printer with at least a 9” X 9” build plate and the same Elecraft setup as I have and would like to print a rack for your own use, please email me OFF-LIST and I will send you the several required .STL files at no charge.

Re: QRPoMeter
KB9BVN - <kb9bvn@...>
I think I found it....google search for Qrpometer Docs came up with this
http://www.4sqrp.com/kits/QRPometer/qrpometermanualv4.pdf From 2012....C3 is listed as .001 and marked as 102. He may be using an old doc? Or maybe he has an old kit?

In the instruction sheet parts list, assembly instructions, and schematic, the value of 0.1 uF is specified. Please follow the instructions, and use the correct value. --
