While not a QRP group, per se, there are some guys who belong to ARROW (www.w8pgw.org), the amateur radio club in this area, who play around with QRP rigs. 73! Dan KB6NU Hi, Ned–

Thanks for your comments. While not a QRP group, per se, there are some guys who belong to ARROW (www.w8pgw.org), the amateur radio club in this area, who play around with QRP rigs.

I do some expedite trucking with a cargo van for extra income and to keep my hands in the business. Hi! I have been 100% QRP since 1966, when I built my first OHR-400. Since then I have built a K2 and a K1. Next will be a KX1. I will have a tower and a tri bander, when I can get my neighbor to bring over his equipment to raise the tower. I have used a Hy-Gain HY-TOWER vertical for many years, along with various dipole and inverted vee antennas. The thrill of qrp is much more enjoyable than the big QRO rigs. I know, I have had them. There is just something more enjoyable about working those far away places with a little rig you have built. Do you have an active QRP group in Ann Arbor? I have been involved in a group from Indiana, The East Central Indiana QRP Club. (no dues, just fun) www.eciqrp.org our webpage.
