Grazié Nicola,

Here is a link: http://www.eham.net/reviews/products/22 (http://www.eham.net/reviews/products/22)

This is all products reviews of QRP & QRPp radio, reviewed  by various users.

EXCEPTION FOR:  ICOM IC-703, ICOM IC-703 PLUS WITH 6 METERS, THE ELECRAFT K3 (10 WATTS)
                           ELECRAFT KX3 (10) WATTS.
These transceivers can transmit from 100 milliwatt up to 10 watts

The link is: http://www.eham.net/reviews/products/14 (http://www.eham.net/reviews/products/14)

That is the reason there are not in the QRP section but rather in the regular tansceivers section of products reviews.

Arrivederci,

My first QRP book was "The Joy of QRP" by Ade Weiss. It was a great read, very inspirational and I still have it.  Since then, they invented the internet and to a large extent QRP books became optional, partially replaced by Google and thousands of dedicated web sites.  -But I still go back to Ade's seminal book.

Hello VIC,

Tes a real good book, and I'm looking to see if I can find it in PDF somewhere.

Here are the informations on this book:

•The Joy of QRP, by Adrian Weiss, WØRSP.
 Oldie but goodie, full of operating techniques, construction ideas and a little QRP history.
•History of QRP In The United States, by Adrian Weiss, WØRSP.
 What it says. I found this historical overview even more inspirational than The Joy of QRP.

The Joy of QRP: Strategy for success, published in 1984 by milliwatt Books in Vermillion South Dakota 57069 USA, it has 162 pages written in English.
