Wonderful site, OM... I've been browsing and am very encouraged by your QRP tips. I am a new ham--General ticket only a bit over a month--and with only 5-6 hours, have made 30 QSOs, all in North America, but all during daylight. I'll continue to learn more, both on the air and from reading your site. Thanks so much for the advice! - Jeff Gainer KD0QVQ - Grand Junction, CO - Apr 15

This is a great and inspirational website. I am now looking to change to CW rather than phone. I have been licensed for 35 years but never took the time or effort to become proficient. Now retired and have plenty of time to work on CW. - C. Ray Rollack, NA5NM <NA5NM@arrl.net> - Las Cruces, NM - Mar 19

Absolutely wonderful site. I enjoy QRP using my friend's 2 watt Small Wonder Labs 20 meter rig from time to time. - DAVID COLTON, VO1TK - St. John's, NL - Mar 13

It would be great to have you list your wire antennas in use. (All my antennas are not only listed, but described and completely illustrated with pictures. Just look in my Homebrewing section on the Antennas page for all the details - K3WWP) - Bob Morden, VE6RI - Grimshaw, AB - Mar 12

Impressive work John. The site is simple straightforward and packed with GD INFO and encouragement for us OM's re-entering the realm of low pwr CW (QRP). Awaiting a Ten Tec Delta and an MFJ 9020 to begin zero-beating new friends. FISTS and NAQCC thumbs up. 73 CUL - Leroy Radcliffe KI6EAO - Rancho Palos Verdes, CA - Mar 11

Returned to CW after a long hiatus. Generally I'm fed up with the language and rudeness on SSB, especially 20 meters. Enjoyed your web-site and it certainly helped me to improve my CW skills, especially after over 40 years of SSB and FM---Dave K9KBE - Dave Pueringer K9KBE <K9KBE@ARRL.NET> - Germantown, WI - Mar 11

Very nice site,I visit it often. - Jim- W1JKA/6 - Chula Vista, CA - Mar 8

Hello John, came across your site thru serendipity. We have worked a few times, at least once when I was on my PFR3. My NAQCC number is sort of like my sequential call.... Fate smiling at me. 2630 is the street number of the house I grew up in and where I first got interested in radio. CU and 73 Jerry - N3HAM - Philadelphia, PA - Jan 31

Hi John, Still operating mostly qrp after all these years (first QRP rig was the Heathkit HW7 in the early 70s). Must admit to some QRO HF on emergency nets (100 watts on an old TS-140s). Current rigs are the FT-817 and SW-20. Currently building the Hendricks PFR-3. Congrats on you continuing daily QRP QSO streak. You are amazing! - Mike K7RVX - Syracuse, UT - Jan 25

Good cw qrp website - qudama - Surabaya, Indonesia - Jan 5

Hello John, I think net month will be a year that I worked you and if i'm wrong on that then it will be 2 years. I'm still shooting for at least 1 QSO per day with the Hustler mobile setup I worked on late in the summer. I use the FT 857-D but turn it down to 5 watts. Wishing you a very joyful 2012 with lots of CW DX BOB AF2Q - BOB LECH <beargyrils@aol.com> - Lawrenceville, NJ - Jan 4

Hello John, It must have been a year since I worked you on CW. It looks like the sun may give in a little so working CW will be much better with no QSB.. I made some DX but just enough to confirm calls and I worked a lot of TX and AZ with 5 watts and the indoor loop. I keep pressing my list members to get on the rig and try for any QSO:-) Keep up the excellent job of keeping CW alive 72/73 BOB AF2Q - BOB AF2Q <ollysteed@aol.com> - Lawrenceville, NJ - Jan 2
