Participate in contests with ease with your QCX. Use N1MM+ to log your contacts and to send signal reports. With the CAT & Key interface you connect the CAT and Key of your QCX with only one USB dongle. I found this simple schematic by Guiseppe IU8EUN, in a post on the QRPLabs group.io forum and decided to make it into a PCB.
