That's nobodies business but ur own. Do it if it makes u happy! Screw the QRP purist out there if they can't see the big picture. Most of my radios are QRP rigs, but if I want to run QRO, that's my business and not anyone else's.

Anyone can build an amp but the real issue is how to prevent smoking the amp. Read my blog you might learn something!<br /><br />73's<br />Pete N6QWN6QWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09160697334746659660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7590176649168185428.post-54923104334663593592016-09-16T22:47:26.015-04:002016-09-16T22:47:26.015-04:00Wow my first time enjoying a complete presentation...Wow my first time enjoying a complete presentation from Rev Dobbs, as I had only caught part of his last Dayton presentation before it was deleted.
