Hans, G0UPL, is in the process of prototyping a QCX-mini for portable and or SOTA operations. He has made good progress thus far, as can be seen in the photo below.
Hans states that the: -
QCX-mini uses basically the same schematic as the QCX+ and the same firmware chip. Operation and performance are the same. This is NOT therefore being undertaken as a large, time-consuming project. Specifically, the scope is restricted to keeping it QCX-compatible, to minimize development time. Just make-it-smaller. The project therefore is a mechanical re-engineering task, with some documentation towards the end, and a small firmware change to facilitate the configurable LCD backlight.
