QRP Rigs
In looking over this page as it was previously, it became obvious that the info presented here just changed too rapidly to keep it up to date and accurate without it becoming a virtually full time project. I do not have that time available, so this page is in a new format as of now - February 24, 2008. With the wonderful search engines like Windows Live Search available these days, it is much easier to simply find info on rigs via that method than from a list of links. I will however keep a list here of links to companies that sell QRP rigs. Thanks to those who contributed info to this page in its previous version including Craig-KC2LFI, Bob-K8FN, Frank-W7FH, Rob-AA1UY (ex-KB1DDT), Tommy-K7TGH, Bill-N4QA, John-WA1KLI, Clint-KE4FDT, Gary-K1YAN, Dave-WA9PDS, K. Jones from England, Casey-KS7J, Dar-W9HZC, Mark-WU7F, Terry-WA0ITP, Tom-WY3H (ex-KB3LFC), Graham-G3ZOD, Vance-W7IEX. If you own a rig from one of the companies below, and would like to write a short review for this page, let me know. Thanks to KB6MMS, N4QA, N4VZD, and N9BT for contributing reviews previously. For your convenience, all links to manufacturer's sites and all reviews will open in a new window. After each link is a list of some of the rigs mentioned on that site.
