K1 #2168, #2461 are ALIVE!

[ne1rd]

There has been a dearth of "It's alive!" messages
on the reflector from builders completing kits.
I thought I might address that. Here's one!

I completed TWO kits in November. K1 2168 was
a gift from Valentine's Day 06 and I only got
around to building it last month (Nov 07). I
had so much fun I decided to get it a baby
brother so K1 2461 was ordered and built also
in Nov 07. They're both alive and doing well.
They sound great!

K1 2168 - 40/30/20/17 + ATU + NB + tilt stand
K1 2461 - 80/15 + ATU + NB + tilt stand

Not content with that I returned to the
Elecraft order page and clicked a few more times.
Today another bundle of joy came today
courtesy UPS. It is still cold from being on the
truck!

K2 6295 in the box - QRP CW-only + NB + ATU + 160m

I have two four-day weekends coming up and
I think I know how I'll be spending them!

Previously built these little guys, too:
K2 4649 - QRP + SSB + ATU + NB + DSP + BAT + RS232C
KX1 753
K1 1460 -- sold (foolishly)

I know I always get a charge out of reading when
others get their new radios up-and-running. I
thought I'd share.

73!

Scott,
