Time: Dec 3, 2025, 07:00 PM
Topic: “Fun With QRP” Speaker: John Meade, W2XS

QRP means low-power amateur radio operation, with 5 watts or less for CW
and digital modes, and 10 watts or less for SSB.

John will be presenting a talk on "Fun With QRP". You won't want to miss
this one! John is an avid QRP Operator in Northport, New York. Here is
John's Bio:

My main rig is the Elecraft K4D with the KPA500 and KAT500. I really enjoy
the smooth QSK and quick QSY of the system. The K4D is a wonderful radio,
and I am enjoying it very much. I have a K1, K2, KX1, KX2, KX3, SST40, OHR
HP40, QCX mini, and NC40A for QRP use. The paddles I prefer are the
Elecraft Hex-Key, the Brown Brothers Model BTL-A, and, for QRP, the Black
Widow, Paddlette PK-1, Vibroplex Code Warrior, and K9LU Bulldog paddles,
all of which have a nice feel. The antenna is a center-fed 135-foot
multiband doublet ("zepp") fed with KW 300-ohm ladder line through a Balun
Designs Tuner Balun.  I enjoy CW operating, QRP, and restoring and using
boat anchors.  I started out in traffic handling and still like to QNI into
nets. My brother is WA2DSF and is using the K2 in Florida. Unfortunately,
he is in a place with antenna restrictions, so the antenna so far is an
indoor loop. His 2-meter HT is working, though. LICW Club #53, CWOPS #1407,
