It wasn't my K2, and it wasn't on purpose (I had the drive all the way down
for tuneup, and just forgot when I heard a JA in Atlanta), but I once got a
439 report from over 10K Miles on 750 mW!

I was wondering why the poor report (he was pretty solid) so after the QSO I
saw the problem, and measured my output before turning up the wick.

When Mother Nature wants you to comminicate, you communicate. When she
doesn't, 10KW won't help.

BTW: That was CW<g>.
