I haven't any moral objections to mode B, just to the firmware
designers who design an embedded keyer in a rig to use only one mode
and that mode is mode B!
I am sure these two DX contacts I have made in the past week are not any
miles per watt record, but you can work 'em. Trans continental contact
has been made with W6YX (John at the Stanford ARC report to me 57), trans

The first time I posted about this the QSL.NET spam catcher got me, since the

Of Elecraft builders? I'd say only a few. A K3 would be a great

Is easy on batteries , fits into my wallet, and is a kit or close to a kit.
The MFJ is fine but way to big etc. Ive tried some of the others but no

The Elecraft Analyzer would work just fine... Please send me one...

Comrades,
I wanted to thank each of you who advised me on the merits of starting
code with straight key or paddles. I greatly appreciated the quality
of your comments. It's astonishing how much compassionate intelligence
is focussed at this reflector. Thanks again. john ferguson
I think the main reasons homebrew has become so challenging are access to
small quantities of parts (thanks to Mouser for ovecoming this to some
degree), and the challenges of assembly for small lead sizes and spacing.
The steady hands of pick and place machines and solder reflow allow this

Good summary, Bill.
I was going to respond to the poster who said completely homebrew stations
were the norm in the 50's, but I didn't. I was licensed in 1957 and didn't
know anyone who built their own receiver except some of us built a regen
receiver for the fun of it. Some built their own
I was one of those ops who was building his own gear in the 1950's. Scratch
built my first transmitter. Built a Meissner kit receiver in the late 40's,
etc.
It's easy to look back to those days to understand the popularity of
building today, but I wonder if it has any real relevance beyond that

I built a NorCal40A QRP radio and used it on camping trips for a number
of years. My QRP K2 and KX1 have totally replaced it, and I'd like to
free up some storage space for other treasures.
If you'd like it, possibly to introduce a kid or two (Scouts?) into the
joys of CW, QRP, and field radio
Hi Eric,
Yeah, same here. Bought the K2 for its size and performance to be used as a
backup rig at home and to take along on DXpeditions. It just happened to be
a kit which had very little to do with the decision.
Dayton is wonderful as usual.

I am setting up a ham shack at a local Boy Scout camp. They have a Kenwood
HC-10 clock. It is a really neat clock, but it takes me about 5 minutes to
figure out how to set it. If I do not post instructions in the shack I doubt
if it will ever display the correct time.
Can someone send me a copy

Interestingly enough,
in the late seventies we were complaining about the lack of suitable outlets
for homebrew projects. I didn't dcompletely buy it then nor do I buy it
now.
It's always required ordering out for stuff like ferrites, power
transistors, and the like. It's not so bad,
No formal announcement of which I'm aware. There are pictures of a prototype,
which others have seen and reported. There may be more info tomorrow.
One side effect of hanging around the Elecraft booth: K2 #4491 is in the bag
ready for the trip home, where it will join K1 #1966.

Hi Gang,
I've got a problem with my K2/XV144 combination when using a Linear
after the XV144. I've setup the combination correctly ( I think) and it
works fine barefoot...max power of 5w from the K2 to drive the XV144
easily gives me 25w plus out on 144 Mhz

Good Evening,
Another week travelling around the US interviewing for jobs. If I keep
this up for another few months I may actually land one!! But enough of
that; if any of you have stayed away from Dayton and kept your money safe
maybe you'd like to try the ionosphere and see how 20 or 40
Just curious about the look of the new Elecraft Amp - if it was on display at
Dayton, were there any pictures available from Wayne and Eric or passers-by?
