Hello All, I operated in the Classic Exchange event, and on Tuesday evening on 80 meters I was surprised by a call from Wayne, n6kr. Wayne was using the K4 (I think he was working, hi). Interestingly, I was using a Sierra qrp transceiver that I built and that Wayne designed many years ago now. Wayne pointed out that he designed the Sierra, but I already knew that as I have, like many others, followed Elecraft starting with the Sierra kit (before Elecraft), and then the k2 kit, the kx1 kit, and finally k3 (that eventually replaced MP, Orion, and Omni VI in multi-two or so2r).
Thanks for the qso, Wayne. 73, Will, wj9b, dit dit CWops #1085 CWA Advisor levels II and III http://cwops.org/ On Wednesday, January 15, 2020, 10:12:49 AM PST, Buck <radiok...@gmail.com> wrote: The word was the kits would be about 6 months after the first release. This allows them to get experience assembling at the factory and allows time for writing the assembly manuals.
