[Elecraft] first K2 QSO

[Charles Vollum]

Hi guys,

I fired up K2 s/n 3632 for the first time tonight, connected to a G5RV 
Jr. antenna strung up as a "lopsided-L" (or maybe it's a "crooked 
inverted-V") off of the carport roof.  Tuning around 20m I heard SP7AID 
in central Poland calling CQ DX and worked him on SSB with 10w getting 
a 53 signal report.  Very pleased with my first K2 QSO... I'm sure I 
will do even better when I get the KAT2 built and installed; I suppose 
a 4 element SteppIR up on a tower wouldn't hurt either!  Hey, a guy can 
dream, can't he?
