Lenny, nice work with your K2. i enjoyed the event with a K2/100 (that previously enjoyed similar contests QRP before its 'upgrade'). the low bands especially are in nice shape, even for modest stations - and I even worked VP6DX on 15m from the east coast with only a vertical.
at least one of the ops at PZ5WW is K8DD, a K2-user. prior to event on thursday nite he was running QRP from his K2 on 40 and 20 meters. hint -- look for some of these visiting DX ops lingering today after the contest. 73, Curt --- w2bvh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 70 Q's, 42 countries, 12 watts with K2 1520 and a > 130 ft cf zepp. Not > exactly QRP, but with sunspots the way they are I'm > willing to stretch a > point.
