Not to loose the momentum of a warm soldering iron! The next kit on deck is another K1EL keyer …

<drum roll, please>

K16- EXT keyer

(inventory parts)

Counting the parts

P.C. board now populated except IC1 and optional R2 (probably a 470 ohm) for audio output (AF)

Most parts populated except IC1

Melting solder again

03Jan22

Partially assembled 20 watt QRP dummy load

The last quarter of last year I bought another soldering station and checked out that it would get”hot” and then started looking for a ‘new’ kit to build.

I then ordered a few small kits from QRP-Labs and the first one to get started was a simple dummy load.

(see above)

Assembled kit

Now … to the next kit in the pile!
