K2 #2529 is on the air - finished setting things up yesterday, trimmed the 40 meter inverted V to get the SWR down, heard a CQ in the midst of some pretty bad QRN at about 4 PM EST and gave it a try. Gerald came back and we had a nice 20 minute chat on 40 cw. I have been off the air for over 20 years - feels good to be back on - and with a great little rig. Larry AG4NN
