The K2/10 remains a very capable rig for portable use and SOTA activating. While the KX3 has several advantages including weight and size, I've not yet been compelled to get one. If I really want light weight (3 ounces) and small size (Altoids tin), I take my ATS-3. Part of my love for the K2 is from building it myself in 2004...it might be for sale after I leave planet Earth. Here's a little story about SOTA activating using the K2 in the recent QRPTTF event: http://www.uwharrieqrp.com/2013/04/qrpttf-and-rocky-knob-w4cem-047.html 73, Bill W4ZV -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/A-Rob-Sherwood-s-talk-in-Dayton-tp7574814p7574932.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
