In response to several requests to relax the 5 Watt
power level in consideration of the current sunspot conditions, we have set the
transmitter power level for the event at 10 Watts or less.
?
This is also done in response to others who have
pointed out that many QRP radios, such as the uBitx, KX3 and KX2, are capable of
power outputs of ten watts or more and are in many cases operated at those power
levels.
?
We see nothing wrong with adjusting the power output
up a little bit so as to increase the fun.? And, in these low sunspot
times, perhaps provide signals that are more easily readable for those who are
struggling a bit with their CW.
?
So get on the air for the event on 3 April, and have
fun.? That¡¯s what it is all about.
