[Elecraft] First QSO with K2/100 #5020

[thomask.smith at adab.centaf.af.mil]

I finally received authorization to operate here in A6 land and had my
first contact. I was on the way out of the door heading for work and
heard A41RS on and believe it or not he heard me call him! Of course
he's right next door so it wasn't real hard to make contact. He was 59
+20 here. Too bad I didn't have time to inquire about my signal quality.
Maybe next time.
I want to thank everyone who helped me get the radio on the air. I had a
couple of bad 2N7000's, one bad chip and one diode missing in the parts.
Not too bad considering I ordered all the options plus the KAT100. The
biggest problem was waiting for replacement parts to arrive.

Thanks again and look for me on the air,

73,
Tom A61/WA7DET
