[Elecraft] KX1 fish story

[Wayne Burdick]

I woke up this morning a bit earlier than usual. Just happened to have the KX1
sitting on the bedside table. Just happened to have an invisible loop antenna
deployed around the ceiling ;)

Tuned up the rig using the KXAT1 ATU on 20 meters, and heard RZ1OM calling CQ.
Nabbed him on the second call! Not bad considering the operating situation:

  - rig hand-held
  - internal battery
  - 1.7 watts
  - indoor "lasso" antenna 8' off the ground, made from #26 enamel wire
  - house electrical system as ground
  - lying down
  - XYL sleeping nearby, oblivious

:)

73,
