My greatest QRP thrill was quite a few years ago. Had a Ten-Tec PM3A at the time. I managed to work a ZL in New Zealand on 20 meters with a dipole at 15'. The output was around 3 watts.
Later with a Ten-Tec "Argonaut" (serial #61) I managed to work a whole bunch of Pacific stuff one night. Kwajelien Island, Caroline Islands, Hawaii, American Samoa all on SSB with 3 watts PEP and a Newtronics "Hustler" mobile antenna on my old Ford Mustang. That was quite a thrill! You'd be surprised wjhat you can work if you are presistant! 73, Sandy W5TVW ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve, G4GXL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Alan Dewey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <Elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Friday, October 01, 2004 7:49 AM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KX1 1000 miles per watt | > Where / how do I apply ? | | Congratulations ! | For award details take a look at - | http://www.qrparci.org/arciawds.html | | 73 | Steve, G4GXL | QRP-ARCI Webmaster | _______________________________________________ | Elecraft mailing list | Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net | You must be a subscriber to post to the list. | Subscriber Info (Addr.
