QRP Operating Notes

This is a short article about QRP HF working in RadCom

About a year ago, at time of writing, a new gentleman - Daimon Tilley/G4USI - took over the role of putting together the 'HF' column in RadCom magazine.

QRP is usually defined as 10 Watts for voice communications and 5 Watts for data.

I thought I'd like to share - as I try to as often as possible - just how well it is possible to make contacts using low power and a compromised antenna set-up.

I find this works best with the digital modes - including machine generated ones - but it's also feasible with voice communications too.
