QRP Pixie
One of the simplest and easiest to make QRP transceivers - I've had a lot of fun with mine and recently made my first contacts.
I was really helped with this by getting the settings right for the receive frequency and testing the power.
Here's how I tuned up my QRP Pixie:

00:00  Introduction
01:57  Testing the Receive Frequency Offset
05:01  Testing the Transmit Frequency
06:09  Testing the Transmit Power
06:58  Power Calculation
08:36  Ready for QSO !
