I bought my first Elecraft kit, a KX1, at Pacificon last October. I was frankly astonished by that little radio. It was a total joy to build (and operate), a feeling I had not had since the Heathkit days. Madness soon followed, along with the biggest selloff of ham gear (and other gear) since my college days when I struggled to pay the rent. I built a nearly fully optioned K3 along with an XV-144. That wasn't nearly enough fun so I built a fully-optioned QRP K2, interspersed with pile of mini-module kits.
Tonight I finished my fully-optioned K1 The K1 was built while in the throes of gallbladder attacks and while recovering from gallbladder surgery on Vicodin, a testament as to how easy it is to build and align. Why, it even works. I did take a short break while actually in surgery. Thank you, Elecraft! Eric WD6DBM K1 2755 KX1 2112 K2 6689 K3 2545 XV-144 XG2, NGEN, BL2, DL1, W1, AF1, AT1.
