My "amateur career" has been characterized by fits and starts and a series of really terrible station locations with concomitant crummy antennas. About eight years ago, after a long hiatus, I purchased a K2, mainly for the enjoyment of the build. I was very pleasantly surprised at the strong performance it always seemed to turn in.
This morning, after another long hiatus, and at yet another crummy location with a 20 meter dipole in my "attic space" and after a credible WPX performance, I was able to work, with little difficulty, the ZK3X expedition in Tokelau. I would like to credit this contact to superior operator skill and so I will. The superior operator was on the other end. Thank you for your great ears. (There is a 67% chance he was using a K3). And "thank you" to all of you who have made operating my K2 such a good experience. It is your skill at digging my signal out of the noise that has provided more than half of my enjoyment. And last, "thank you" to Eric and Wayne for creating such a superior set of products and creating, in my opinion, a completely new paradigm in the amateur community.
