Sunspot Cycle 24 may be my last chance to enjoy 10 & 15 meters. Looking through a Ha solar telescope reveals a Sun that is waking up big time. The California QSO party is my objective time to have a P3 up-and-running and to have efficient strategies ready to employ in the contest. Although I got my Novice ticket in 1957, I've never enjoyed Ham Radio as much as today. The reason is that a small company, Elecraft, has combined unequaled effectiveness, reasonable cost, fast upgradability, and unsurpassed service. The K3 has earned Elecraft a place in the Ham Radio Hall of Fame. Their success is our success. I'm looking forward to the P3. 73, Fred, AE6IC ______________________________________________________________ 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
