Re: [Elecraft] First 4-meter QSO with KX3

Great first contact!  I love the contact op's sense of humor - wondering 
what the prize for being first might be ... maybe he could receive one 
of those highly coveted, and extremely rare, free E-Brand hats everyone 
is clamoring to get, as a prize for being the first contact on it!;-)


== JHR ===

[Elecraft] First 4-meter QSO with KX3

[Wayne Burdick]

Hi all,

Since we don't have 4-meter band privileges in the U.S., we sent a KX3 4-meter 
module to Peter Waters in the U.K. for test purposes. Peter arranged a test QSO 
on 70.190 MHz (SSB) with another station, as documented in this video:

Both stations were using a dual-band (6 m/4 m) antenna from InnovAntenna, 
though I haven't been able to figure out what the model number is yet. Peter 
describes it as "single-feed, very compact."

For information on the KX3-2M/4M option, see the FAQ:
