With over 200 pages and numerous illustrations it represents excellent value.. After touring various facets of QRP, Minimum QRP gives some forthright but often forgotten advice on equipment. You'll find information on such QRP sub-interests, such as weak signal modes, VHF and pedestrian mobile in this book. Still not sure?

It's for a broad audience, including newcomers, the more experienced and those returning to amateur radio. Some suggestions, based on the author's extensive experience of restricted space and portable QRP, are given here.

D. L. Chilton said Recommended for the new QRPer. Excellent intro to QRP with much detail for anyone wanting to get into working in the 5 watts or less world. Peter writes in an interesting and engaging manner and offers many practical useful tips and guidance from his own experiences. He writes on everything from so. Qrp lovers will enjoy John Leonardelli A no non-sense approach to being a better qrp operator. I found the operating skills, propagation and band by band breakdown to be very useful. Dont expect to find schematics and circuits but you will find very practical experience that Peter is sharing with you.. Peter knows what he is talking about. Peter knows what he is talking about. He has great videos on YouTube as well. Recommended.
