[Elecraft] New KX-1 hearin' stuff...

[John_K7FD]

Well I made it to the second alignment stage. I found that plugging the
headphones into the headphone jack and not the key jack works much better
for testing ;)

All tests passed with flying colors and the receiver perked right up using
my K2 on a dummy load for a signal source. I'm listening to shortwave on 40m
right now but gave it a brief brush w/ cw, too. That filter is nice!
But...of course! It's an Elecraft...

The receiver is hotter than a firecracker...glad I've got that RF Gain
control! Knowing Wayne's backpacker bent, mostly likely designed for a wire
hung in a coconut tree instead of that 3 element quad on 20m :) 

Anyway, I'll probably just let it sit here and cook for awhile...I'm having
too much fun toolin' around the bands (all 2 of 'em!!)...
