Hey Terry and the Group: Well we got dug out today, had drifts about 3 feet deep in the road between here and civilization! Actually I kinda enjoyed being snowed in! It's back to the grind stone in

Snow is still falling here in Radar O'Riley's home town, and we may need radar to get around it it continues. We only have abt 6-8" on the ground. Forcast is for another inch or so tonight and

Jim, Sounds like you have been having fun building 4sqrp kits. To answer your NS-40 questions. Yes, 9 watts out is pretty standard. If you want to stay with the 5 watts or less for qrp you can

Ga Jim Congrats on your new projects. Please post some pics do we can see you progress. Get them cabled up spot your self on qrp spots and we will see if we work you! 72 Good luck, good building

Congratulations Jim, well done. Early NS-40s' developed quite a bit of power, some even up to 12 Watts!! However in a high swr situation they won't live long at that level. They'll get real hot -

Finished up the NS-40 today. This was the last of the 3 kits I was building, including the SS-40 and Magic Box. The easiest was saved for last, but wouldn't you know, it gave me the most trouble! The

Hi, Learning the Q signals is pretty easy when you encounter them one at a time. Apparently everybody now is familiar with "QNI". 73, Bill KU8H

Yep. there is a Q signal for pse relay... but this net is a casual net, and isn't supposed to use any Q signals except the QNI to check in. However... if someone wants to check in... and uses Q

What's being missed in all of this is that the fella submitting the original post asked, "What is the proper way to ask for a relay? Is their a Q code? I wanted to relay in, but didn't know how to?" I
