Roger, G3XBM, shares his extensive experience in **QRP** (low-power) amateur radio operation, detailing various aspects of transmitting with minimal power. The resource provides insights into VLF (Very Low Frequency) reception techniques and the construction of simple **crystal radio sets**, reflecting a foundational approach to radio experimentation. It includes links to external resources covering QRP clubs, online receivers, manufacturers, and technical references, offering a curated collection for enthusiasts. His page serves as a hub for those interested in the challenges and rewards of QRP, often comparing the efficacy of different low-power setups. The practical application extends to understanding basic radio principles through hands-on projects like crystal sets, which G3XBM has explored. The collected links provide a starting point for further research into specific QRP equipment or operating practices, drawing on G3XBM's long-standing engagement with the QRP community.

Presents a Brazilian online portal dedicated to **amateur radio**, **CB radio**, and shortwave listening (SWL) communities. The platform facilitates free classified advertisements for radio equipment, including HF, VHF, and UHF transceivers, antennas, and accessories. It also aggregates a substantial collection of technical articles from Brazilian amateur radio operators (e.g., PY2DJW, PY1LJ, PY1LL/4LC), covering topics such as CW training with RufzXP, balun importance, and radio wave characteristics. Furthermore, the resource provides extensive links to Brazilian ham radio sites, clubs, international organizations, and official ANATEL (Brazilian National Telecommunications Agency) documents regarding licensing, equipment homologation, and regulations. The portal features sections for user evaluations of transactions, a "Top Ten" list of most visited pages, and a calendar of past and upcoming ham radio events across Brazil, including "Feirinhas" (local swap meets) and "Encontros de Radioamadores" (hamfests). It also includes a directory of ham radio related businesses and services in Brazil, such as antenna manufacturers (Diex), QSL card printers (Arte Final), and repair technicians (PY2MOK). The site also offers propagation maps, DX cluster links (e.g., DX-SUMMIT), and satellite tracking tools, making it a central hub for Brazilian radio amateurs seeking to buy, sell, learn, or connect with the community.
