Stop right there. That's all there is to it. :-) Some
of us build, some buy commercial, some both. Some of us
have giant gnarly stacked yagis that'd fry a flock of
migrating birds and some are using random wire in their
attic.
But we're all QRP. There's the glue. Maybe we have a few
sub-species, but we're all QRP. My QSL has a mode section
where I put 2xQRP, not QRP/HB/Small Antenna x QRP/YaComWood/
Rhombic.
Mode-independent, gear-independent. Just the same desire -
get the most out of the sig you have.
Ooops... I've exceeded my self-imposed limit of 3 QRP-L
posts/day. Sorry folks. I'll crawl back into my cubical
now. Lunch is over. :-)
QRP Forever!!!
