QRPup Cup: Sophie Coffee Mug

This QRPup Cup features Sophie, the sweet SK pup of W2AEW. QRPup Cups celebrate the special bond between amateur radio operators and their four-legged companions. Designed for QRPer.com, each mug proudly displays the slogan “Ham’s Best Friend”—a nod to the loyal pups who keep us company during early mornings, late-night contacts, and countless radio adventures in the field. These mugs were designed by Geneva (K4TLI) and were inspired by the memory of our beloved QRPup Hazel, who joined us on many portable radio outings and never failed to bring warmth, joy, and a wagging tail to the shack and the trail. This design also honors all of our four-legged family members who enrich our lives with companionship and unconditional love. Purchasing this mug helps support Geneva while she’s attending university and allows fellow radio enthusiasts and dog lovers to celebrate two of life’s great joys: low-power radio and loyal dogs.
