#2985 is doing just fine. Wked a W9 last night and worked an AL1 in Anchorage this afternoon. It sure beats the heck out of my old HW 7/8/9 and TenTec Argonauts. Haven't had this much fun in years on the bands. Wking AK from South Florida isn't easy to begin with, but to do it QRP with a vertical on my RV is even more difficult. Just too cool!
