Re: KX1 Field Day fun!

[Bill - K6WLM]

Wayne,
 
My KX1 field day experience was similar to yours.
 
Using an external R/C car rechargeable "9.6 Volt" battery pack for extended power reserve and a simple antenna up in the tress I had no trouble working many stations from New York to Hawaii and north to Alaska.
 
What a blast!  Thanks for a great rig design....
