Sierra Modifications
The Sierra QRP HF CW transceiver is a popular kit amongst QRP Homebrewers. It
was designed by Wayne Burdic, N6KR and the design
was later published in NorCal, (Northern California QRP Club). A revised
circuit and construction information for the Sierra is featured in recent
ARRL Handbooks.
You will find a detailed description of the Sierra at the following site:
PC boards for the Sierra are advertised as being available from Far Circuit
PC Boards. For ordering information see:
I obtained the main transceiver board and 5 band plug-in band modules in
1996. After locating the parts and building it, I decided that there were a
couple features that would inhance the performance
of the Sierra. They are:
a. Improve AGC,
b. Add XIT to existing RIT circuit,
c. Improve QSK TR switching,
d. Increasing power output,
