Thanks for noticing, Bill :) The HK0NA crew certainly did a great job, as have other recent DXpeditions using K3s, etc.
DXpedition use of our gear has been a source of input and inspiration for us, and we provide a lot of support to the teams. Many hardware and firmware refinements now in shipping products can be traced to the kind of stresses put on the gear in inhospitable terrain and climate. We're now looking forward to a few "micro DXpeditions" featuring the KX3. 73, Wayne N6KR On Feb 7, 2012, at 8:20 AM, cqbi...@q.com wrote: > Surprised the lack of comments on this subject, unless I missed it. > I do want to thank the Elecraft gang for their support of the HK0NA > operation.
