This is probably off topic, seeing as how most topics are now K3 or KX3.
Still, just had to praise my K1... Again, this Saturday morning, turned K1-4 s/n 2258 to 15M and started working EU with 4 watts to a center-fed doublet. In about 15 minutes, Croatia, England, and Russia. If this weekend is anything like last, will likely work 10 other countries or more. I built this rig several years ago, including the internal tuner to use for parkbench portable. Since completion, I can't imagine how many QSOs have made with this little rig. I am always amazed to answer a CQ using less than 5 watts and receive a response from someone thousands of miles away. I own a number of other QRP rigs, including a K2, but the little K1's simplicity and capability always draw me to use it on the weekends. 72, KB5JO ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
