My "amateur career" has been characterized by fits and starts and a series
of really terrible station locations with concomitant crummy antennas. About
eight years ago, after a long hiatus, I purchased a K2, mainly for the
enjoyment of the build. I was very pleasantly surprised at the strong
performance it always seemed to turn in.
This morning, after another long hiatus, and at yet another crummy location
with a 20 meter dipole in my "attic space" and after a credible WPX
performance, I was able to work, with little difficulty, the ZK3X expedition
in Tokelau. I would like to credit this contact to superior operator skill
and so I will. The superior operator was on the other end. Thank you for
your great ears. (There is a 67% chance he was using a K3).
And "thank you" to all of you who have made operating my K2 such a good
experience. It is your skill at digging my signal out of the noise that has
provided more than half of my enjoyment.
And last, "thank you" to Eric and Wayne for creating such a superior set of
products and creating, in my opinion, a completely new paradigm in the
amateur community.
