Yesterday, to ring in the new year, I lifted something wrong,
resulting in immobilizing myself with back pain.
Today, faced with the dreary prospect of lying abed, I had my son
string my 24' wire in my bedroom, from the curtain rod to the closet
door, and put the 33' ground wire around the room, on the floor.
Now, Kixie and me and our two watts are merrily chatting away on
40m...that's much better!
Hi Lloyd,
Sorry to hear about your back! Fortunately, this is exactly the kind of
compromised operating situation "Kixie" (the KX1) was designed for,
with its built-in paddle/battery/ATU, and I'm glad it's working out.
And when the band shuts down, you can read your novel using the rig's
log-book lamp ;)
Happy New Year to you, too.
73,
