It's small, so don't expect a whole bunch.  If the bands are open, you'll
probably QSO.  I once read a story where Eric or Wayne -- or maybe it was
just a K2 owner -- who demo'd a K2 with the battery option with a
miracle-whip-like antenna to a buncha folks in a restaurant and QSO'd with
it.  So from that perspective, it's "neat."
