Not that anyone would doubt it, but the K2 can also be a player in the
big leagues too: I had 1335q x 79 mults, although the K2 did have a
Henry 2K helping it along. I received a number of comments of
"excellent sounding signal". Using a Heil DX-4 headset mic.
And next year I should have a second K2 ready (and maybe even an
Elecraft amplifier).
Who needs $10K radios..........?

Another SS over till next year.
But this one was fun... 73 mults/296q's/20+ hrs.
Worked 6 other Q stations ( including another K2 - N9NE ).
Nice to see I'm not the only QRP masochist!
This year I added a 160m dipole which ended up more like a loop due to
yard and trees at about 60ft up. And due to this found working the
lower bands a breeze for the locals... and still had some good gain on
the upper bands.
In all the K2 worked FB, the 1600 filter on SSB was good enough to
fight the big-dogs in the air.
till next year,
all best,
