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
