[Elecraft] Re: KX1 antenna wire

[Wayne Burdick]

Hi Dave,

Yes, #534 is what I use, and it's what we recommend in the KXAT1 manual (which
will will be on-line in a couple of days). I have a 500' reel, and anyone who
visits the Elecraft lab will get two free 25' lengths ;)

I'm hoping there's another source for this stuff. I haven't found anything else
quite as good for QRP home/field antenna systems. Maybe a rash of orders will
light a fire under the wireman. (Sounds familiar. Fire-wire?) A rash of orders
for a certain knob certainly ignited something at the Yaesu distributor, as you
may recall.

73,
Wayne
