My initial CQ on twenty meters was quickly picked up by none other than another KX-1 ! Thanks to Dan and his mighty attic dipole, KX-1 nr 959 logged its first QSO -- thanks OM!
The rig works beautifully despite this op's goofy mistakes ;) Somehow, after being soooo careful, I still managed to end the kit and have a resistor and capacitor still in the muffin tin! R10 and C19; both checked off in the manual and both left out...go figure! And lastly, the ol' headphone in the key jack trick...can you hear me now? Sheesh... Overall, I'm really liking this radio! I really like what I'm hearing in the receiver. I also like the keying/QSK; very smooth with minimal thump. Now to play and then later in the week tackle the 30m module and ATU. Thanks again Dan N0TK for being Q number 1! 73 John K7FD, KX1/959, K1/78, and K2/586 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
