QRP Power : The Best Recent QRP Articles from QST, QEX, and the ARRL Handbook

Abstract: QRP is amateur radio-speak for transmitting on low power (5 Watts or less). For some it is a just a challenge, for others it is necessary when the power grid has failed and you are involved in emergency communications. This is a compendium of previously published articles on the hows and whys of QRP.

Keywords: book review, survival, electronics, QRP, low power voltage, ham radio, amateur radio stations, communications, applied electronics, Amateur radio stations, relay systems.
