- Antennas for QRP Operation
- Antennas for low-power operation resemble those for 100W use. Minor adjustments, like capacitor voltage ratings, may apply, but basic principles persist. Portable antennas, notably Backpack Antennas for weight-conscious setups, hold relevance beyond QRP. While some antennas function acceptably at higher power, efficiency issues arise at QRP levels. Testing antennas at 100W exposes weaknesses, particularly in tuners, crucial for efficient QRP operation.
