Reading through all the posts on this list, it just occurred to me - am I the last person on earth to be running a K1?

Hi Norm,
I power up all my E-gear periodically, including the K1, to remind myself of how much fun it was to design (and to build S/N 0000001, which always qualifies as a home-brew project). Hope you’re enjoying yours. 73, Wayne N6KR ---- http://www.elecraft.com > On Nov 13, 2018, at 7:14 PM, Norm Lee <[hidden email]> wrote: > > Reading through all the posts on this list, it just occurred to me - am I the last person on earth to be running a K1? > Norm vk5gi > McLaren Vale > South Australia > > Sent from my iPad > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[hidden email] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to [hidden email] Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Norm,
I can attest to the fact that you are not the only one still using the K1, it is still a very fine transceiver. The K2 is longer lived than the K1, it was the start of Elecraft in 1998, and is still in production 20 years later. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/13/2018 10:14 PM, Norm Lee wrote: > Reading through all the posts on this list, it just occurred to me - am I the last person on earth to be running a K1? > Norm vk5gi > McLaren Vale > South Australia > > Sent from my iPad > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[hidden email] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to [hidden email] > Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

I still run a 4 band K1. It is my rig of choice for Field Day. My K2/100 is still my primary rig at home. Coupled with an AL-80BQ, its mojo still breaks through the pileups fb.

Hey Norm, are you kidding ? I operate every Elecraft i own and the K1 is the center of my QRP station. Look at the attached pic ;-) 73's de IW2NOY Graziano PS My K2 is doing a piiiiiit-stop in this period with Don W3FPR reccomendations, but soon it will go back on the air. PS2 Yes, also with the Expert 1K-FA si QRP, the Expert in my shack act as Automatic antenna switcher and Auto Tuner, switching also the two input between the K3s and the K1. The Expert is the center of my shack.

Norm,
I think you are seeing that the answer is: absolutely not! But the list traffic is light because the K1 is, well, a less complex radio. I'm finally getting around to adding the noise blanker to mine, but it's a six-bander -- with a board swap. Thank you, Elecraft! W/best regards, Pete P.S. The KX1 also us a valued member of my QRP stable. -- Peter N.
