[Elecraft] Elecraft-Free Straight Key Night
I want to publicly congratulate myself for operating SKN this year with only my souped up HW-16 and box-stock HG-10 VFO. Usually I get frustrated with the boat anchors and go Elecraft at some point. The dark K-line called, all right. "Isn't that chirp a bit embarassing?" "How long has it been since you had to listen to more than one CW signal at a time? Not easy anymore, huh." "It's a tad rude to drift into another QSO, don't you think?" "Hey, I wonder what's happening 10 KHz up? I'd be happy to show you." The dark K-line was always polite. Always ready to help. Always ready to cool off the shack. Kind of Jeeves-like, but with a mixture of Eric and Wayne's voices. I resisted for the first time since K3 #2545 came into my life. 73 WD6DBM Eric Sent on my Samsung Galaxy S® 6. __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Well, I declare ~ with a Navy "flame-proof" key the only reason to participate in SKCC & K3Y events is to SEE how ell the 5W KX3 will do ~ yes. it's a challenge Last year I did WAS and so did W8RP (pictured on QRZ) and in the last three years of the K3Y ~ January event ~ managed a clean-sweep with just an open-wire fed dipole THANKS to all the operators at the other end; great hobby !
