[Elecraft] 6 Meters..

Tue May 13 16:51:00 2003

Doug,

6M is amazing!

And for those of you old enough, and since this IS a 'kit builder's 
reflector"...(OK, give me a little latitude here)..my first kit was a 
Heathkit "SIXER" lunch box, crystal controlled 5Watts AM, with 4 elem yagi 
at 20ft....Could talk to anyone in the USA just like sitting next to them at 
the library.....
I think I was 12 or 13 at the time....and oh yeah, the term QRP was never 
mentioned..hi..
