Wow! A while back when we were throwing out ideas for an Elecraft wish list, I expressed a desire for a KX1 that covered 15 and 10 meters. I sure got that and more! I’m tempted to ask for a 100 MPG hover craft and see what happens! My only question now

[Elecraft] Yet another product idea

I enjoy QRP Give me a KX1 that does 20, 15, and WOW, 10 mtrs! The 80mtr end is of no use, push it up to some real low power QRP bands. Then a handheld 2 watts would be incredible! And maybe options for 17 and 12 mtrs.

I just finished a XV50 transverter. Using it with a K2 with the KI02 control. It seems to work OK when keyed for SSB. When I use CW, its relays click and chatter like mad. Do I have some thing set wrong? Roy AB7CE ___

I just purchased a MH2 to use with K2. I'm getting reports of 5/9 but with some distortion or "rattle" audio with mic gain on 1. If I try other mics, I get clean audio reports but way down in signal strength. The resistor is installed and jumpers there. A Kenwood dynamic mike wired for K2 gets t

You will not be disappointed. Just last night I worked 160 meter Delaware and Kentucky, QRP 10 watt SSB to 10 watt SSB, and many other QRO stations. I can work any state on 160 with 5 watt CW. Astonishes the Big guns. Its all about antennas anyway. Roy, AB7CE,
