K2 & K3 use increasing

[M0XDF]

Just a snippet from November RadCom, in the article about NFD and on  
page 43 in the section 'Equipment and Antennas' ...

... it appears that the long supremacy of the FT1000 series as an NFD  
rig has finally passed. The most commonly appearing transceiver in  
2009 was the Elecraft K2/3 series, with nine in use.


I know that for quite a few years, our club used a K2.

So what more could one hope for as a recommendation for portable use?
Well done Elecraft.

How about "the big one": World #1 Multi-Multi in CQWW CW. In 2008, that
was 3X5A using seven K2s.

Yes indeed.
