[Elecraft] K1 on 60 meters?

Sat May 10 16:01:00 2003

I asked Wayne about this and wanted to possibly build a two band board for 80 and 60
meters.  That way I could just pull the 4 baand board and use it when the urge hit me
in winter time.
Don't think the IF will affect things the way the conversion process is done.   I
would get a 4 band one right now and if you want to add 60 meters, a 2 band board
will be cheap enough.  (IF AND WHEN the FCC gets off it's collective asses and
allocates the band to hams here!)  The BIG holdup is FCC and FEMA I think!  The "ham"
lobby isn't affluent enough to lobby them hard!
