Comments on CW and QRP
Where building your own, frequency resilience and finesse combine.

Morse Code or CW is no longer required but is still very popular. It is usually found on the botton of most amateur radio bands.

Tune between 14.000MHz and 14.070MHz or 3.500MHz to 3.510MHz

QRP Radios

QRP means low power. The challenge with QRP radios is to communicate with finesse and not brute force power. Both of which are options in the ham radio world. The QRP radios are still capable of communicating over long distances such as from Tennessee USA to New Zealand
