[Elecraft] ELECRAFT NET: Next Test Sunday 25 May @ 2000z & 2030z

[Kevin Rock]

I was running 100 watts last week but only got one person to reply.  Yesterday 20 meters was wide open.  I made my normal contact into OK City and we just kept 
turning down the power.  I only noticed a drop in his RST when we got below 5 watts.  That was the first time I gave him a 589 other than that he was a solid 599.  
Maybe you will have better luck this weekend.  I will be attending a robotics competition in Portland however so will be unable to assist you with my K2/100.  
Autonomous robots win out over playing radio any day of the week :)  Even though I enjoy CW very much robotics is extremely important to me.
   Good luck on getting this started,
        Kevin.   KD5ONS
