The SUPER Tuna Transmitter Kit
Here is the latest and greatest from QRPme. The SUPER Tuna Transmitter Kit is a QRP experimenter's dream. The main features are: quick change band modules, 1+ watts of easily adjustable RF output power, built in dummy load and RF power measurement probe circuit which outputs to a DVM and an expansion location for either a Picokeyer or Picaxe microprocessor daughter-board. Another interesting feature is QRPme's twin tin template. The kit comes with a round tuna tin sized board. The basic components are configured inside a 2 5/8" x 1 15/16" rectangular section sized for installing inside an Altoids tin. The 'wings' are scored, allowing them to be snapped off thereby making the board the right size for fitting inside the Altoids tin. All electronics parts come sealed inside a brand new tuna can with colorfull label. Each band module kit contains a circuit board, crystal and all capacitors, toroids and magnet wire for operation at a specific band/frequency.
Price: $35.00
includes 1 band module of your choice
additional band modules are $10.00 each
frequencies available are: 3.54579, 3.560, 3.6864, 7.028, 7.030, 7.040, 10.116 and 14.060

Two Tinned Tunas Kit ][
This is the NEW E-Z build version of
the TTT kit!
The Two Tinned Tunas ][ (TTT) kit is the latest updated version of the classic TT2 kit designed by W1FB, Doug Demaw. The TT2 transmitter has been kitted by several QRP clubs in the past. This current version is a COMPLETE kit; whereas, the previous versions required additional parts scrounging for connectors, switch etc. This kit comes COMPLETE with all PCB mounted parts: transistors, capacitors, resistors, connectors, crystals, crystal socket and key jack. Step by step assembly instructions, with Hi-res pictures are available below. The current label design is shown on the above picture. All the parts come sealed inside a factory fresh tuna can with an easy open pull top lid. This kit is designated as the EZ build version as there are no toroids to wind and no more off-board connections to make down in the can. Pads traces and clearances are large making it an excellent kit for beginners. It is significantly easier and faster to build than previous versions making it an excellent kit for club builds and build-a-thons. It also makes a perfect gift. Can be assembled in one evening by a 'beginner'. A great conversation piece for every QRPer's bench!

The RFP RF Probe Kit
QRPme's RF probe kit is about the easiest and simplest smd kit
you can find that also performs a useful task. Containing only three 1206
sized smd parts and a fully silk screened solder masked circuit board,
the kit is a fast build, and useful too! Use it to troubleshoot your
malfunctioning QRP kit. The main difference in our kit and all the others
is the lack of any enclosure or hardware! You creativity is encouraged!
In fact, we are having a little contest with this kit: build the kit &
take a picture of the finished kit and another of the kit inside YOUR
enclosure and send it to QRPme for adding to the 'Great RF Probe Contest'
pages. The totally unbiased Official Team of Contest Judges will pick 3 winners
using some form of convoluted rules and guidelines that I won't go into here
(mainely 'cause we haven't thunk them up yet!)
and award some truly stupendous prizes!
Small $6 purchase required to enter...
At this price, you can afford to buy more than one and give it away!

Tuna Power System Kit
The Tuna Power System kit is the ideal benchtop companion to the Two Tinned Tunas and Sudden Storm kits. This kit has an on-board Unitrode intelligent gel cell battery charger chip and power distribution connector system for powering multiple tuna can rigs or any other 12 volt powered QRP kits. There are 5 RCA connectors for powering QRPme kits and the original TT2 as designed by Doug DeMaw. There are a couple of additional connectors for powering other unique items on your QRP bench: a USB connector with a regulated 5 volts allows for powering USB accessory items like mini fans, LED lamps etc. and a Molex .2" x 4 connector allows for both +5 and +12 volt items to be powered using surplus cables from PC power supplies. Two terminal screw terminals are provided for connections to the builder (that's you) supplied +15 to 20 volt DC wall wart and gel cell battery. Maximum battery charge current is programmable using current sense resistors. Four resistors are supplied for charge currents of approximately 400ma, 600ma, 800ma and 1000ma.
Price: $30.00
Numerical Frequency Indicator Kit
Both the TTT and TT2 kits have SIP crystal sockets for quickly changing crystals. Both kits are shipped with a crystal for operating at 7.040Mhz. All the previous incarnations of the Tuna Tin 2 kit also shipped with 7.040Mhz crystals but no crystal socket. Another popular QRP 'watering hole' is 7.030Mhz. The Numerical Frequency Indicator kit solves the dilemma of which frequency to operate: This kit includes a 7.030Mhz crystal and 'reminder' can label indicating which frequency is 'in use'. Attach the label to a tuna fish can (cat food cans work AOK and are QRP priced), insert the crystal in a QRPme kit and you are 'stomping' in new turf. For older versions of the Tuna Tin 2, carefully unsolder the crystal, insert and solder a 3 pin SIP socket, cut or clean up the old crystal leads and you too can be 'stomping' in new turf.
Price: $4.00
Numerical RST Indicator Kit
When operating in contests using a Two Tinned Tunas or TT2 transmitter, RST reports are a snap using the new Numerical RST Indicator kit from QRPme. This kit provides an easy to read numerical display of the most optimum RST to transmit easily and automatically. Replace the subjective task of determining what RST with the simple procedure of reading a digital display and then transmitting the optimum RST displayed. The RST kit consumes so little power that you can leave it on at all times. For a limited time only, The RST kit is available free of charge! Of course, at this price, you have to supply your own hardware. Download the file and build it on your locally acquired chassis. 100% guaranteed or double your money back!
