The heat wave across the United States sizzles - and it must have something to do with QRP kits, because they're coming forth like rabbits!
First, from the 4 Sates QRP Group - The Murania
This is an AM Broadcast band radio - just like we used to have back in the 50s and 60s. Remember when you used to have one of these? We'd sneak them to bed with us and listen to ball games or Jean Shepherd K2ORS on WWOR Radio out of New York City.
It's described as perfect for the 1st time kit builder. The price is a modest $35. This would be a great kit for youngsters or scouts, because unlike a lot of Amateur Radio kits - this is something that can be used immediately after they've finished building it. The details are at http://4sqrp.com/Murania.php
The other offering is a Simple RF Probe Kit from the QRPGuys:
Coming in at $10 - this is a great item to have on your workbench for troubleshooting RF circuits. No RF output? Go back to the beginning stages and see where the output stops. Trouble has to be there! For details - https://qrpguys.com/qrpguys-simple-rf-probe
You can always get one of these to have on hand if you have trouble with your Muriana - although, like most 4 States kits, I doubt you'll encounter any problems.
