Please Read First
GQRP is not a business but a club run by unpaid volunteers. You will find on this page contact details, email/postal.
Please remember that we have our own family lives, and although we endeavour to deal with your enquiry without undue delay, you should not expect an immediate response.
Please also note that all items on this page are reserved for fully paid up members only.
We must apologise to our German members - items we send to Germany are being returned by your customs people - unopened. No one (except them) seems to know why. The UK postal service does not know either, and cannot offer any advice! We are, of course, using the correct paperwork!
The GQRP Club has available three kits.
The GQRP Limerick Sudden Receiver, the Limerick Sudden Transmitter Kit, the matching Limerick Sudden ATU.
Please note that the TX and RX kits are just that, and do not together make a TX/RX as they were designed by George, G3RJV, as separate items.
To read more please click the appropriate item above.
Spectrum coils.
We now stock these coils which are the replacements for some of the popular 10mm 10K TOKO range. Please look at the component list below for the range we hold in stock. We also have a datasheet.
Due to lack of sales of the Sprat on DVD, we have discontinued this item and from now on, the Sprat archive data will only be available in Sprat-on-a-stick form. This is the 10th generation of the Sprat archive and covers issue 1 to 200. It also contains the 2024 "Sprat Extra" book in PDF form and the special edition of Sprat that we sent to members when George Dobbs G3RJV passed in 2019. The memory stick data uses standards based html and has been produced in-house. It should work on all computers which have a web browser. We suggest that you copy the entire memory stick contents to your hard drive, and then make a shortcut to the "index.htm" file. The magazines are all in "PDF" format, and you will need either Adobe Acrobat (which is not included but can be downloaded for free from here), or any compatible pdf reader such as Foxit Reader.
Non-members who wish to purchase a copy of the Sprat-on-a-stick should join the club first. Overseas purchasers, you can use PayPal to order the Sprat-on-a-Stick, but only if purchased directly from the U.K. Warning! Perhaps to the low value (which will be stated on the packaging) we seem to get most items direct into the members hands. However, we cannot guarantee that individual countries customs people won’t occasionally make an exception. Members from Spain & The Netherlands please note. Members from Australia are able to order Sprat-on-a-Stick from Terry for the price of AU$20 which includes postage. This will be for delivery to the Australia only. Please contact Terry direct, but please note this price and service is only available if you are a member of GQRP club. You can join at the same time as ordering. Members from the USA are able to order Sprat-on-a-Stick from Bill for the price of $15 which includes postage. This will be for delivery to the USA only. Please contact Bill direct, but please note this price and service is only available if you are a member of GQRP club. You can join at the same time as ordering. |
Please Note - Component sales are restricted to members only.
Please download our latest component list in Adobe PDF format.
Because of the limited space on the back of Sprat, this list will usually contain more items, and greater detail about them.
Please Note - Special offer sales are also restricted to members only.
Special offers are low quantity items, usually donated by members, but are also obtained by "deals" of low volume items. These are not guaranteed to be in stock for long, but a reasonable time will be left before accepting an offer for single items.
Please wait for your offer to be accepted before sending money! email Dan

Those notes include parts lists, circuit diagrams and a few notes to help with specific points.
If you need detailed instructions, please refer to the Practical Wireless articles!
[Many UK public libraries also offer electronic access to Practical Wireless using either the Libby app, Borrowbox or Pressreader. Ask at your local library
PCB orders are limited to a maximum of two panels per member. If you have a specific requirement for a larger number, please let us know what it is and we will work out specific postage and packing costs.

Back issues of SPRAT. Dan has very few back issues now as they were taking over the store, and as folks were requesting back issues less & less & less, something had to give. He now only keeps, in any quantity, back issues that are later than those that are on the Sprat-on-a-stick - memory stick, (currently 192 or later.) So, if you want an issue earlier than 192, then you should check by e-mail before ordering! Postage:- UK : 1st magazine - 90p + 70p each extra magazine, EU : 1st magazine - £2.20 + £1.20 each extra magazine, DX : 1st magazine - £3.30 + £1.50 each extra magazine. (Again, sorry about the huge postal charges - posting magazines is not cheap!) If you want more than 2 or 3 magazines, then you can ask for an exact postage figure. |

The best way to order is to send Dan an email with a list of your requirements with the current price against each entry. Send it to sales(at)gqrp.co.uk
Dan will reply as soon as he can, with confirmation of which items are in stock, and the postage needed. We prefer payment by Bank Transfer (BACS), cheques, cash or PayPal (in order of preference).
For BACS, the numbers you need are 01-07-44 and 54738210 - THE G-QRP CLUB. (Banks seem to like
that our name is all in capital letters, and sometimes do not recognise our name in lower case).
You may also need to know that it is our No2 account and that we use the Rochdale branch.
Although our account is a club account, it is actually a business account and you may need to know
this if you are doing a bank transfer.
International bank transfers also work. The codes you will need for this are:
Payments can also be made by cheques or cash. Cheques must be made payable to "GQRP Club".
We also accept Paypal - please see our page explaining how.
Minimum order value for cheques and Paypal is £5, however, you can pay by PayPal for smaller amounts but you MUST select the "Friends/Family/Gift" option when paying, as this will mean that they will send us the full amount and not deduct any charge. This also works for larger amounts and helps the club a little. If you have a smaller order, then we accept cash, postage stamps (1st or 2nd class), or postal orders by post if you prefer this method.
Please note that due to problems with credit cards they are no longer accepted as a direct payment. We can only accept payments with credit cards via Paypal.
If you are not sure about the postage, or whether the items you want are in stock, you may email Dan first - see below.
Cash payments can be made in GB pounds, or US$ bills, or Euro notes only and should be sent to Dan securely. Remember that you do this at your own risk.
Orders may be sent in more than 1 package to keep within postal limits. UK members are asked to pay up to £5 with postage stamps (1st or 2nd class), postal orders (uncrossed), or UK banknotes (please send securely). This cuts down on our bank charges!
You can check stock availability by contacting Dan.
