WSPR (pronounced « whisper ») stands for « Weak Signal Propagation Reporter ». It is a protocol, used for weak-signal radio communication. The protocol was designed, and a program written by Joe Taylor, K1JT. This project is a stand alone WSPR beacon complete  and a radio transmitter including low pass filters. The beacon, once configured, will run stand alone transmitting a WSPR sequence each even minute.
