I have two furry family members who often visit me when I'm operating...and often come into the shack when I'm not there. Naturally, being cats, they climb all over the place including my operating position.
Heres a tip: if you leave your radio on when you aren't present, engage "Tx TEST" to prevent accidental carrier transmission if they want to try out their fists on your keys. Sure, I could shut the station off, but I tend to cling to my old ways when I used hollow state gear (last rig before the K3 was a National NCX-3) and it required long warm-ups. -- 73 de Dick, ka1oz Elecraft K3/100(K) #859 G5RV Doublet Titan-DX Vertical ______________________________________________________________ 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
