The objective of the QRP ARCI Operating Awards Program is to demonstrate that "power is no substitute for skill". It encourages full enjoyment of Ham Radio while running the minimum power necessary to complete a QSO and thereby reducing QRM on our crowded bands.
QRP is defined by the club as 5 watts output CW and 10 watts PEP output SSB.
Awards are available to any amateur operator, please 'Read more' for rules and application form.
