Hendricks QRP Kits
BITX20A
Assembly Manual
27 October 2007
The BITX20 idea originated with a transceiver designed by Ashar Farhan VU3ICQ that was intended
to be easy to build from surplus and salvage components. That transceiver has been built and used by
many hams worldwide with great success. The BITX20A by Hendricks QRP Kits is a PCB realization
of the original design which includes a parts kit so you don't have to locate all the necessary
components. In addition, several upgrades have been added to make the transceiver output cleaner and
to raise power output to the full QRP limit of 10 watts.

No, you don't get the pen or the wire stripper, just the box of parts.
