Well Tom Garigue:

Glad to meet you!

Interesting, I have never really done QRP, I am guilty of being a bit
heavy on large amps and input power... but do find it a bit
interesting, qrp.

I had developed a simple led swr meter in another newsgroup (original
design--I think) and had been looking for a QRP'er to check it out...
will have to look up the schematic and pics and have you take a look
and see if it is any use at QRP levels... I was using it at 5+ watts
out...

Well Tom, my bark is much worse than my bite and I don't hold a grudge
long... perhaps we will find out what we agree and disagree on as we
go along here...

One thing, I'll tell ya how it looks to me... grin

I hope you don't mind my anonymity here, but I have been burnt when
people know my name, call and address. But I assure you, there is a
real person behind this text, and only one...

Warmest regards,
John Smith

How do you know I am not one of those "brain damaged" hams? Made
so
from running illegal-multiple-kilowatts off my bedsprings (and
experiencing a HIGH SWR which bathed me in gamma rays like got the
green hulk!) in a cheap-wino-hotel?

(well, ok, I am lying--it was a motel)

toothless-deranged-grin

Keep a sense of humor about you man--it helps when all else fails
you...
