Ham radio firmware roundup, week 39 2026: QRP Labs QMX 1_04_015
The week in short
- Seven firmware releases recorded between 21 and 27 September 2026, across three vendors.
- No new products joined the tracker, and nothing was withdrawn.
- Everything listed here was published by the manufacturer itself, on its own site.
Notable updates
QRP Labs — QMX
Four releases in four days, which is a pace worth a second look if you keep a QMX on the bench:
- 1_04_012 — 21 September
- 1_04_013 — 22 September
- 1_04_014 — 23 September
- 1_04_015 — 24 September — newest
All four are patch-level bumps inside the 1.04 line, so they read as maintenance releases rather than a new feature branch. What actually changed in each one isn't something we can tell you from the version data alone — the release notes on the QMX page on updatemystuff.com are the place to check before you flash. If you skipped the earlier three, 1_04_015 is the one to land on.
