NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!!! That totally goes against the spirit of QRP operating, in my opinion. ;-)
I work mostly CW QRP but, I do work SSB QRP once in a while and it's a blast. I generally start with the QRP calling frequencies. As far as antennas, I use a home brewed vertical and home brewed magnetic loop antennas. I don't have supports like towers, poles or trees in my yard. My K3 is a 10w version and my K2 has the 100 watt amp but, it sits on the shelf now. I rarely ever used it. What was I thinking? I guess I just wanted something else to build. :) Gary, N7HTS > > If you want to try it, I would strongly recommend a beam antenna to give > you a signal boost. > > 73, > Don W3FPR > > On 4/18/2012 1:45 PM, ron wrote: >> On 04/18/2012 01:42 PM, ron wrote: >>> many thanks to all who responded .... >>> >>> I am trying to sway my local club to do QRP this year and wasn't sure >>> abt SSB. >> >> oops!
