?The only issue is rig quality, and Elecraft has that in spades. After two K2s, two K1s, and a K3 my only question is: how do I get rid of the Japanese stuff in Belize (with internet, ham radio is oh, so passe. Can't even give the older rigs away). But no, I will never sell the 430s; too much sentimental value: was my first rig after getting back into ham radio after a long hiatus; and I have done too much work on the Jupiter and the Argo 509 to let those go.
But: what is the first rig that gets turned on the morning? Eenie meenie mynie moe between K2 and K3. What stays on when I go to sleep? Usually K2, so it is already on in the mornings. Lower end of 40m: QRP CW. Am eternally grateful to Wayne, Eric and the rest of the Aptos crew (will not sell the Sierra nor the Norcal 40A at any price). Always willing to make a sked for those who want V3.

I'm on a little 2-day vacation up in Bear Valley, CA, with Lillian and the kids. I'm not allowed to work, but I've really enjoyed reading this thread. (Who wouldn't?) Thanks, everyone.... With your help, we hope our future products will also earn such praise. 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
