Title: Broke my QRP rig today
Post by: KK0G on September 12, 2013, 09:58:04 PM
I broke one of my QRP rigs today >:( . As I was climbing out of a motor grader my iPhone fell out of my pocket a landed on hard concrete shattering the glass covering the screen................ technically it is a QRP rig 8) . Fortunately I was able to find a replacement screen kit with tools on eBay for only $25. Not my usual QRP homebrewing/repairing project but I'll give it a shot.

Thank goodness it was only your iPhone!  A man can live without a phone but without a QRP CW rig .  It would be sheer drudgery !
