In fact, Phil, my K3/10 probably qualifies as QRP full-time though I do get 16w out at max on 2m. I think you will notice the difference the first time I check-in at 300w ;-) Still haven't started work on that kit. My current interest is modifying and older DEMI 2m transverter to be ready

We had a good net with generally strong signal levels. A net on 14.304 MHz caused us to move to 14.307 MHz, which worked out fine. We had 26 participants over a 26 minute period. Discussions were on a new S-meter command and IF overload in a multi-single contest scenario. Have a great week.
