WOW... felt just like my first Novice QSO (a zillion years ago)! Everything worked perfectly and as advertised first time! Plenty of RX sensitivity and 4-watts output on both 40 and 20 meter bands.
0500z, First QSO with the KX1 was up the coast to Washington state, I answered a CQ - 599 + 20db report given on my dipole - WOW, conditions must be good, I thought. 15 minutes later, I dropped over to 20m and worked V73NS for a 569 report (he was 589). Then found 7K3QPL calling CQ and gave him a shout - 1 call and a 569 report from Japan - I've got a 2 element beam up at 50ft. Now gonna build the ATU for this little bad boy! Watch out for me in the Sparton Sprint next month - Skinny division!
