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, and in some case telephone numbers. 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. If you telephone and do not get a reply we may be out or indeed on holiday. Please also note that a good many items on this page are reserved for fully paid up members only.

SPRAT DVD

This is the 7th generation of Sprat DVD which uses standards based html and has been produced in-house. It should work on all computers which have a web browser. It uses either Adobe Acrobat (which is not included but can be downloaded for free from here), or any compatible pdf reader such as Foxit Reader.

This is the latest version covering issues 1 - 172.
Price - members £5 (6.5 Euro, USA $8.0, AU$9.5, and NZ$10.5)
Non-members £12
Plus postage - £1.20 (UK), £3.50 (EU), £5.00 (DX)

Online Ordering: You can order the Sprat DVD using Paypal. Whatever country you live in you must pay online in UK Pounds. The currency conversion will appear on your credit card bill at the exchange rate at the time of purchase.

Overseas purchasers, you can use PayPal to order the Sprat DVD, but only if purchased directly from the U.K. Our DX reps do not offer Paypal so please do not request this method of Payment.

Some DX reps may have stocks of the DVD, but payment to them should be by cheque or cash (see below).

Members from USA, Belgium, Germany, Spain & The Netherlands please note. Our EU reps Jos, Dieter, Jon and Henk are able to take DVD orders for the price of 11 Euro which includes postage from UK club sales. For the USA, contact Dave and the price is $15.
Please contact our reps 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.

If you are attempting to use an older CD on 64 bit windows, then see this note which may help if you are having problems. This latest DVD, however, has a 64 bit loader and should have no problems - depending on your security settings. If that turns out to be an issue then browse to the "index.htm" file on the DVD and run that.

Members who use Macs may find with earlier generations of the DVD, that they are unable to open Sprat #153. They will get a file not found error. The solution is to copy the entire contents onto their hard drive and run it from there having renamed the file "Sprat153.pdf" to "sprat153.pdf". Macs are case sensitive (as are Linux PC's) This problem has been resolved on the latest version (v7)

On the DVD FAQ page the datasheet referred to is missing from the DVD. That datasheet is here.

Club Badges.

The price is £6 each with a UK postage of £1.20. The EU postage is £3.50 and DX is £4.
You should order them from Graham G3MFJ. They will be dispatched by Nigel G0EBQ

How to Order.

For membership renewals go here.

We now accept (and prefer) Paypal - please see our page explaining how.

Payments can also be made by cheques or cash. Cheques must be made payable to "GQRP Club".

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 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. You may email Graham first to check stock and postage costs at the same email address.

Cash payments can be made in GB pounds, or US$ bills, or Euro notes only and should be sent to Graham 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 (50p max), postal orders (uncrossed), or UK banknotes (please send securely). This cuts down on our bank charges!

You can check stock availability by calling (+44) (0)113 267 1070 (but please do not expect Graham's family to be able to take orders or even discuss club sales business!), or email Graham
