I'm wondering how many other Elecrafters will be in the CW SS contest this
coming weekend? Would be interested in hearing about your plans,
including
Elecraft rig, power level, antennas, and your section.
I'll be on for the full contest with my K2 #4941 at 100W. I tried the QRP

Hi Craig:
I've NEVER (in 45+ years of SSing) been able to make it thru the
entire SS without rest... and I'm sure this year'll be no exception.
That having been said, I do intend to operate QRP single op and will
try to work as many folks as I can... I've found that, when using
QRP, it's

I expect to be on 0500-1200Z on November 5. I'm planning to run my K2
at 5 watts strictly 80 m. I'm not really trying to run up points in
the contest. I am working on QRP WAS on 80 m, and I still need a few
western states (ND, SD, NV, NE, ID, AK, HI), and SS is a good chance
to get
Small addendum: Despite the 4 callsign my QTH is Maine, one of the
less common multipliers.

Well, I will be in the contest, but not with the K2 and not running QRP.
Sorry, but the OLD Flatland Amateur Radio Transmitting Society will be running
all out at W0NO's QTH. Now, I would take the K2 but when you are invited to
play...you play with his toys. Lots of fun with a good antenna

On all of those I assume it's because their receiver isn't as good as my K2.
It's the Elecraft curse: You can often hear people who can't hear you.
In fact, bad receivers account for about half the things on the top-10 list.

Hi Craig
We sure welcome you back to the fold. Please post your call when you get
it.
I heartily recommend the K2 if you have any expectiations of getting back
into
contesting. It really is a kick butt radio, whether at QRP or 100w
levels.
I think you will get more bang for your buck out of
11 matches
