[Elecraft] CQWW CW WOW!

Thu Nov 28 09:29:00 2002

Wayne, I do tell all my friends, at least those that will still listen to
me.  I guess telling the Elecraft list is a bit like preaching to the choir,
but the truth must be told.

One more truth.  I see a lot of comparisons of Elecraft to Heathkit.  But
the truth is, Heathkit was never this good.  You guys have delivered one
great radio.

Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving.

73,

Rich W1EZ

my 756PRO.  The CQWW CW contest was the clincher.  The 756PRO is a fine rig,
but the K2/KPA100/KAT100 is a superior contest rig.  I finished up the
KAT100 on Saturday morning with plenty of time to dabble in the CQWW CW
contest.

whistles when you start off with superior receiver performance).  You can't
work 'em if you can't hear 'em.  You can hear 'em with this receiver!  And
work 'em with the KPA100 (even with a G5RV - which is where the KAT100 comes
in).  By the way, the K2 is much easier on the CW ears than the 756PRO,
which is prone to accentuate key clicks in the narrow filter modes -- a real
headache generator.
