Mike Huhn, K3TEZ will discuss the Pixie 2, a minimalist QRPp CW
transceiver, with regard to its roots, evolution, and design. Following
the initial talk, there will be a brief receiving demonstration that
will compare the Pixie 2 and another direct conversion transceiver with
an FT-817 superhet transceiver and a Q&A session.

NOTE:  (For those of you non Ham Types) QRPp means that you can work the
world with less power than you have in your Bathroom night light!  CW
stands for Continuous Wave which is another term for using Morse Code.
If you have an interest in Electronics at all, you need to be here!
Mike will describe how this radio works and even give us a demo on how 2
different radios can sound different just because of the different type
of circuit!

We’ll also be talking about some of the upcoming events such as the MD
QSO Party which starts right after Ham Night.

So Come one.. Come ALL to our next Ham Night at UAS!
