In 2022, we created The QRPer Board, a discussion forum hosted at QRPer.net, where QRPers can ask questions, share insights, and explore amateur radio topics in depth.
Why use the QRPer Board?
The discussion board is the quickest way to get answers to your questions—much faster than sending an email to K4SWL–!
Our growing community of active QRPers and field operators provides a wealth of knowledge and guidance.
It’s free to join The QRPer Board, and all discussions are moderated to keep trolls out and our radio family in! While a free membership is required to post, you can browse and search all topics without one.
How to join for free
Due to ongoing spam attacks, we manually verify new accounts before activation. Here’s how to sign up:
1. Register your username
First, register a username on QRPer.net by clicking here.
2. Email the Admin
Send an email to [email protected] with:
- Your UserID
- Your email address
- Your callsign (or “SWL” if unlicensed)
Once verified, you’ll receive a confirmation email. Note that our (amazing) admin is a volunteer and an active ham, so account activation may take up to a few days.
Explore and search QRPer.net!
The QRPer Board covers a wide variety of topics. Before posting a question, use the search bar at the top of any page to check if your question has already been answered.
For advanced searches, click the gear icon next to the search bar.
Pro Tip: You can also search QRPer.net directly from search engines like Google or DuckDuckGo by including site:qrper.net in your query.
For example:
pota site:qrper.net or penntek tr-35 site:qrper.net
A wonderful community
The QRPer Board is more than just a discussion forum—it’s a thriving community of like-minded QRP enthusiasts sharing their expertise and experiences. By posting your questions and engaging with others, you not only receive faster answers but also help grow this invaluable resource for the amateur radio community.
