The QRPer Board

If anyone is having an issue getting CW messages to send, I did a 20 second video of how to do it with the x6100. Make sure you're on the latest firmware, as some previous ones did not work.

I wanted to include a couple of photos in some of my posts today, but the size was too big apparently. Is there any recommendations/suggestions how to get the pictures at a lower resolution without ruining the picture quality?

Thanks in advance.

Congratulations on learning the code Kurt! You'll really enjoy it especially if you do POTA/SOTA.

Good morning, Sounds like a fun vacation! If you check out "Costal Waves And Wires" on YouTube, K4OGO does many beach activations. He also is QRP, so would be a great resource. If you can get a reasonably priced surf casting fishing pole holder that goes into the sand, that would work gre...

I finally got my (tr)uSDX delivered on Saturday. It took just over a month to be received from China. I had watched many YouTube videos on it (including Thomas K4SWL review), so I knew going into it that the speaker is almost useless, which it is. I have an external speaker and a headset that I brou...

I have the SW-3C (the newer version), IC 705, X6100 and as of Saturday afternoon the (tr)uSDX. Each have a different reason why I purchased. The IC 705 was purchased in Nov. 2020 right after my knee replacement and used a lot in the shack while recovering. By the time I was ready to activate, I knew...
