I worked 18 hours of the contest, 435 Qs, 178 mults, final score of 194,910.
The K3 performed flawlessly using it in conjunction with an Icom IC-2KL and AT-500. My biggest gripe is the number of long tuner-uppers on DX calling frequencies - there's no excuse for it. If you can afford a station, you can afford a dummy load - plain and simple. Even with the narrow filtering on my K3, I was unable at times to filter QRM from the passband - some stations like to tuck right in underneath you if you're calling CQ, often within a few hundred hertz of where you are - annoying to say the least, not to mention the difficulty in filtering them out even with the narrowest of filters. I won't mention names or point fingers but I heard a couple of well known contesting "superstations" employing these tactics. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/K3-and-CQWW-tp1597892p1600532.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
