There is a Wikipedia entry about QRP I see (
that is where you will find this image). QRP appeals to a lot of people, although when times are hard more power can reach further. On modes like WSPR QRP powers are usually fine.
See

I know.
ReplyDeleteToday I had SV9 on 15 with 3W, the 10m F2 QSOs yesterday were marginal with about 100W.
Nice to see a wiki entry on QRP.
BTW, Roger, I started using my OZ9QV blog, so hopefully there will be a post there from time to time : http://oz9qv.blogspot.com/
Hope to see you there ...
Will take a look Jan. All the best with QRP and the blog.
ReplyDeleteNot so much there yet, but it will come. There is also an older blog I have used for a while, and which may be active from time to time, regarding monitoring of radio astronomy/satellites/QRSS :

Yes I have also been PA9QV for quite a while.
Wondering if you worked for Philips Jan? I visited AP Radio in Copenhagen a few times in my working days (Pye, PRCS, Philips, Simoco, Sepura). Good people. I much like the Danes. Then I guess we share common ancestors over 1000 years ago!
ReplyDeleteI was working for Philips in Copenhagen a few decades ago, but my work in NL was in patents.
ReplyDeleteYes, I guess we do share some common ancestry from about 1000 years ago. I have visited (mostly) England a few times, and I like you Brits ;) I guess the humour is not too far apart, either. If I decide to travel more in the UK we might make an arrangement to meet face to face. That is always fun to do.
In any case, be seeing you !
