What appeals to me about the Micro-908 is that it's more than an
exercise, being very useful for a lot of things. I'm
Thanks to everyone (and there were many) who made suggestions for a
project to learn SMT techniques. I've decided to build the AMQRP
Micro-908 (see
http://www.amqrp.org/kits/micro908/index.html#Description%202). They
are currently sold out, but expect to produce more kits soon. This is

Can someone suggest a kit using SMT components that would be a good
learning experience for someone wanting to learn SMT techniques? I
would prefer something useful like test equipment rather than YACQR (Yet
Another Cute QRP Radio) of which I have several!

Check with Tom, n0ss. His kit for
K2 LED tune indicator uses SMT.

Similar and probably more affordable are kits from Down East Microwave.
Don't let the microwave part fool you as he has kits that start as low
as 50 MHz. I've built several of the transverters from DEM which all
had SMT components.
I'm pretty sure that some of the kits from Kanga USA are
Hi Vic, I'm with Joe on this one! I've just built two of these, one for the
K2 and the other for the K1, First time I've attemped a SMT Kit Very pleased
with the results, If you do go with the K1 CW ind' order the replacment
button works great! check it here

While I was at Ozarkcon 2006 in April, I saw a demo of SMT soldering
using a toaster oven. For a tutorial, go to www.qrpradio.com and click
on projects and then SMT oven soldering. At Ozarkcon, Cecil
(KD5NWA) soldered all the resistors onto the NORCAL QRP dummy load board
(both sides)
I have done both the N0SS Version of the K6XX CW tuning indicator as well as
the KD1JV Digital Dial/Frequency Counter. Both are good starting projects for
SMT as they don't have a large parts count. The N0SS instructions for the CW
tuning indicator are great for a beginner at SMT. I used a
