[Elecraft] re: 40 M ECN

Kevin asked,

    And Ray, where were you this
    week? /4? Hmm must have taken that KX1 for a trip. Wayne appreciates
    your treatment of his rigs. Good care and feeding and a little vacation
    now and then makes them perform much better.

I was down in Pittsboro, NC visiting son and family, especially the 20 mo old grandson. Got back from x-mas tree procurement trip too late to try 20 M but stayed up for the 40. Very noisy, and some conutinuous carrier and other QRM. Thanks to K1EV for the relay. Was copying you thru the qsb about 20% of the time - maybe just when the washer relays were putting a surge in your power supply! 

Yep, the lil KX-1 was happy as can be, working into its 24ft wire tied to the crappie pole duct-tped to the deck railing.

73 to all
