Re: Anyone using their Rockmite(s) or Sprite or Lil Squall kits?
I've done a little QRPp in the not-so-distant past (a year or two). I had a SWL 20m Rockmite (built when they first came out and worked both coasts from the middle of the USA with it) and a Pixie

Re: Missing Jumper for my Rexwood 1KW Receiver
