I’ve heard a lot of people sing the praises of C4FM’s audio quality, but I don’t hear it. It’s clear, sure, but it’s also warblely and sounds like a robot trying to impersonate a person’s voice. Like the old Macintosh text to speech program from the 90’s.
I’m on a Wires-X net right now and some hams I know are checking in, I can kinda recognize their voice but takes me a minute.
Would someone like to help me spend money on some good solder?
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.
Today’s my birthday and I want to try and get my first CW contact! My stations all packed up and I’m walking down to my local municipal park. Wish me luck!
I’ll also have you know that I’ve only burnt myself with a 370° C iron one time so far.
*loudly knocks on wood*
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.
