You are all welcome to take part in SPAT Design Challenge for an
Amplitude-Modulated Basic QRP Shortwave Transmitter:
http://www.geocities.com/radio_qrp/spat.html
SPAT = Simplest Practical Amplitude-Modulated Transmitter for the 40
mb Short Wave band.
This has nothing to do with the infamous "Grenade" transmitter!!

Don't be taken in by this challenge! Such equipment can only be seriously
utilized by pirate broadcasters near our 40 meter band. Operating this
equipment will be illegal and, as such, would serve no good purpose. Let
them figure it out by them selves!

That's fascinating.

I only sort of glanced at the original message, noticing it was
AM, but I was reading SPAT as SPRAT, and while I can't remember
what the latter stands for, I thought it was a ham QRP group.
From that perspective, the message almost seems misleading.
I wouldn't have entered, but I wouldn't have given a thought
to the post without your message.

SPRAT is the magazine of the G-QRP club, an excellent publication of an
outstanding club, in my opinion. As far as I know, it's not an acronym,
but I'll try to remember to ask the club founder when I see him at
Dayton next month.

It means something like Small Power Radio Amateur Technology which I guess
more or less is equal to QRP?

A sprat is also a small herring.
