QRP Rig Database
Line

A HUGE "Thanks" to club secretary Vince Kumagai, KIØRB, for putting this database together!

Vince says, "This database is a compilation of known ham radio rigs
operating at QRP levels.  Some rigs are still available while others have
passed on the pages of Ebay and the tables of the local hamfest.  We are on
the lookout for any information regarding these rigs.  Also, any other rigs that
you feel belong on this list are also of interest.  If you have owned, operated
or experienced one of these rigs and would like to share your stories please
send them to KI0RB@arrl.net.  We will add that information to our database
and share it with readers in our club newsletter (The Low Down).
