Wayne,

No problem...glad to celebrate the "sufferin 6s"  ;>)

The K3's APF feature and excellent adjacent signal rejection allowed me to get 
a 
160 QSO with VP8ORK on Friday night of the 160 contest...with big USA CQ 
machines and some awful nearby clix from non K3 rigs.

I do not think this would have been possible without a K3.

73 de al, W5IZ

Thanks for posting this, Al. I didn't realize that W6BK's results were  
tops only in Zone 3.

Congratulations!
