This is more of an amusing story than a warning. Me and my wife were doing some radio stuff on the KX2 a while back. We were playing with the AX-1 whip antenna, not literally playing with it, actual Ham radio stuff. Anyway, just as my wife was transmitting the antenna fell over, my quick cat-like reflex reached out and grabbed that antenna so it wouldn’t fall over, the equally quick cat-like reflex let go of the antenna and let it fall over when I received a bit of a shock.
My advice, don’t do what I did, it wasn’t the best thing to do, and yes, 10watts is a bit of an eye opener. Thought I’d share a bit of whatever this was, Take care and 73, Mitch Johnson/KN4ONH ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
