QDX-M on 10m FT8

This is an impressive rig. 

It has only been used on FT8 but it seems to copy loads (over 1100 stations yesterday).  

I run mine via suitably rated diodes in the power lead to ensure I am below 12V when using a 13.8V PSU so I reckon the output is about 2.5W. 

At this power it has been spotted in the USA multiple times, although sometimes you get clobbered by a QRO station.  Unlike my WSPR beacon it does not change frequency randomly between TX bursts. 

It is very small and probably is smaller than a pack of cards. If, like me, you have a poor voice, it is ideal.  I think the 10m version also covers 12m and the 11m CB bands, although I have not explored these.
