[Elecraft] re:K2/100

[Dave Barr]

I have never understood so many K2ers want to run high power.  Since
completing  K2 sn 537, never running more than 5 watts to a tribander at
45 feet or a open wire dipole, my QRP DXCC RTTY count has gone up to
225.  And in all CQ WW CW DX contests since the K2 has been up and
running I have worked DXCC each time... 5 watts.   Recently, K1B and the
3XY8 stations were worked as RTTY qrp #s 224 and 225,  the 3X on the
third call.  In the '01 ARRL RTTY Roundup, K2YG won the NNJ section
running 5 watts (there is no QRP category).

Pardon the horn-blowing.

Save electricity.  Avoid RFI.  Work hard.  Run QRP.  Feel good!
