Some of my favorite projects
Home
| Keyers | My first modern electronic keyer kit is the Code Boy Pup.  I reviewed this one in the QRP ARCI Journal.  Since then I’ve built several others.  The K1EL K-12 is the most recent.  I like the K-12 command menu the best.

| Z-Match ATUs |  | Z-match antenna tuning units using designs from the notes and articles by Charlie Lofgren, W6JJZ. Rebuilt the ZM-2 with a ‘JJZ dual-tuned coil and dual Z matching links — worked much better. 
 | 
| Rock-Mites HiMite-15 | The super little crystal controlled transceiver
	 from SWL and Dave Benson. Lots of fun to build, make mods, enhancements and operate. Now incldes the new HiMite series. |  | 
| Power Meters |  | Uses the NoGaWatt SWR bridge in combination with a modified Accuprobe kit. 
 | 
| Field Strength Meter | Something I built to give me a visual indication of RF output on 80 through 10.  Uses a dual-tuned input circuit similar to the W6JJZ z-match coils. 
 |  | 
| Tenna Dipper |  | One of KD1JV’s, neat kits being sold by 4SQRP to support OzarkCon. It’s used to tune and find antenna resonance. 
 | 
| Tiny Tornado | The Tiny Tornado is a variation of the Pixie II sold as a kit thru QRPp-I.  It includes plated through holes on a two-sided PCB. TT is a close to minimal CW transceiver for any 1 band, 80 thru 10. 
 |  | 
| Antennas |  | Some VHF/UHF quads with my UHMW plastic spreader block and helicals built for 2.4 GHz. (13 cm) 
 | 
| Odds and Ends | A variety of projects that get
	used around the shack but aren’t in any specific category.  The picture here is the AADE L/C Meter IIB built from a kit.  A most useful tool for the builder.
