[KX3] Now that was fun!!!!!

[George Winship, NC5G]

Never had a rig that had 160M on it until now. Still don't have a 160M antenna. But after listening to the CQ160 CW contest for a while I had to try. So, hooked my KX3 up to my 80M double bazooka. The KX3AT loaded it up and I just spent two hours having fun on 160M. 15 contacts and 13 states with 10 watts. Am going to try to get some sort of wire up for the SSB event next weekend.

What event is there for SSB 160m next week.

I thought the 160m contest starts Feb 22nd.

If there is another contest please share  as then I need to figure out how
to get my inverted L back in the air.

Thanks
Don
