Hello all and happy 2015! I am not new to amateur radio but I am new to the world of QRP. I recently received a KX3 and would like to try it out. I live in Colorado and I have access to both a Buddipole and an Alexloop antenna.
I have a few questions as a QRP newbie: 1) what are the most popular QRP bands for monitoring and what are the main calling frequencies (day and night)? 2) is there a book or website that will give a QRP newbie some background info on the do and don'ts of QRP? 3) I am looking for an antenna that can be left attached to the KX3 that will provide decent HF reception so that I can monitor frequencies during the times when my other antennas are put away. Any suggestions? 4) I am considering buying a PAR end fed antenna. Any comments on the PAR vs my other options (Alexloop, Buddipole)? Thanks, Mark ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
