... Is there a group and magazine or other things that support the qrper? Greg *The* online group is QRP-L at qth.net. Be aware that this is a pretty busy reflector, however. Thereis also a QRP reflector at qth which is very low key. Someone mentioned ARCI, which is a very good organization. There are two other big QRP groups. The American QRP club (www.amqrp.org) tends to be a little more focused on homebrewing than ARCI. AmQRP is more like an association of clubs. They were formed by the merger of NorCal and NJQRP, but work with a half-dozen regional clubs to produce kits and conferences. Their magazine, Homebrewer, is a little better than QQ in my opinion (maybe because I'm more into melting solder). The G-QRP club is another great organization. They publish a magazine called Sprat which has been around forever it seems. Personally, I'm not as big a fan of Sprat because they tend to use a lot of parts in their designs which are harder to get on this side of the pond, but on the other hand, if you are on the G-land side of the pond, those are probably easier to get. They have produced a number of kits, many of which are available from Kanga U.S. on this side of the pond. The DL-QRP club also has a number of kits. Theirs seem to be a little more "polished" than the G-QRP kits which are pretty different. Besides these three biggies, there are perhaps a dozen other clubs that publish online and/or offer kits. The Flying Pigs QRP club is more about kits and contests than publications. Someone mentioned the North Georgia QRP club, which has that neat SWR/Power meter. The Arizona ScQRPions currently has a neat paddle kit. Seems like there are several others which escape me at the moment. ARCI runs a big conference in conjunction with the Dayton hamfest every year which is a wonderful place to learn, get parts, and meet other QRPers. AmQRP supports a handful of conferences, including Atlanticon and Pacificon in the spring, Ozarkcon just passed, and Lobstercon coming up. The ScQRPions are running a conference near Flagstaff around the first of July. G-QRP runs conferences in England and Ireland, too, but they seem to be somewhat more erratic than the ones in the states. DL-QRP also runs an annual conference. So yeah, plenty of resources, and an amazingly friendly bunch as well. ... |
