	That reminds me...I worked SP7AID and OK1CF last night on 20m phone
with 15 watts in to a Butternut HF5V vertical. Talk about MOJO. It took a
few calls to nail SP7AID because there was quite a pileup. OK1CF came back
to me on the second call.

Bon jour Jean- Francois,

Congratulations on getting your K2 on SSB. Now you can check into the 
Trans Provincial Net on 7.055 mcs.and we can listen for your K2.
Now, you must build the KPA100 to really get a big signal on the air, 
believe me you will not be sorry.
I find that on SSB you really need the 100 watts to be heard, especially 
by those uninformed operators who want no part of QRP operations and to 
sucessfully work DX.
I shall keep an ear out for you on the TPN.

73,  Bob  VE3XM
