Equipment

Most of my QRP operation has been on the MF and HF bands, with some experimentation on 136 kHz.  The equipment used includes:
- a homemade transceiver on 80 m;
- a Yaesu FT101E;
- an Icom IC756PRO;
- a Yaesu FT707;
- an Elecraft K2; and, most recently,
- a transmitter/receive converter combo for 60 m

The measurement of transmitter output power is accomplished using a Welz SP220 power meter, and a homemade audio bandpass filter to the PA0LQ design (40 Hz bandwidth) is used to improve the selectivity, as required.
