Rod, What a wonderful gift to the group! Thank you! 73, Shane KE7TR
By coincidence I was reading a copy of Short Wave Magazine from 1939 - the last edition before WWII. It gives the result of a QRP competition (OK, "test"). It's the most delightful of articles embodying more than 80 years ago the spirit of Hans's QCX challenge. One thing I really like is that the transmitter power was defined as whatever the operator chose to make from a "standard 120V dry HT battery". The highest (input) power was 3.5W, the winner used 1.8W. Which bands? 40 and 20 of course.
