[Elecraft] Field Day Report

[Jim Brown]

One of the two CW rigs at K9OR was my K2/100 with KAT100. That rig made 1072 QSO's. 
We ran 100 watts for all of the contest, with the exception of the time it took to make the five 
QRP QSO's needed to qualify for the "alternative power" bonus. To do this, we simply 
disconnected the rig from the 12 v supply running from our generator, connected it to our solar 
panel/battery, and dropped the power to 4 watts. I was able to make the 5 required alternative 
power QRP QSO's in less than 5 minutes!
