They definitely multiply Chris. I think you could probably break any
pileup ;-)

I'm wondering about this K2 mojo that I keep reading about.
Went into the shack last night about 23:30 UTC, turned on the K2,
selected 20m, tuning rate to 1kHz and had a quick tune up and down to
check for activity. Hmmm big pileup there on 14.202MHz. Fine tune,
lots of static so dial in the KDSP NR, and choose a narrower filter
(AF2).
Good operator working the pile up - he's actualling giving his own
callsign regularly! It's K9LZJ/PJ2 - Wheres that? Ahhhh he's anouncing
that too Curaco Island hmmmm fire up the laptop to look it up, it's
the Netherlands Antillies.
He's only about S3 so I don't suppose I'll break the US pileup from
here (I can hear the US stations 9+30 or so and he's bound to be
beamed that way), but lets give it a go. He's tuning up and down a few
tens of Hz so work out which way he's going and set an ambush. Wait
for QRZ and give a call - damm doubled him, wait for QRZ again, give a
call - nearly fell off my chair when he came straight back and gave me
a 55.
Must be that mojo thing I guess. Well I suppose I was cheating by
using VP8 mojo as well. Do two mojos add or multiply?
