I was in the automotive and motorcycle industry for 30 years and we used to refer to a "happy motor". Two identical motors can "feel" different. Both can be producing to specs, but one just seems to be laboring to do it while another is more "willing"...happy. I can't describe it, but we've all felt it.
You probably hit on the difference Tim is experiencing. I don't know anything about the 706 either, but I've had my share of Japanese rigs and the K1 and K2 on CW just feel...happy! Heh heh heh. Eric KE6US -----Original Message----- So my guess (I admit I know nothing about a 706) is that maybe its the clunking and clatter distraction that detracts from the 706 cw enjoyment when compared with the virtues of the K2... 73 de W5SV, Dave _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
