[Elecraft] K2 160m QSO

Hi All,

 

Just thought I would report my first 160m K2 QSO.. I managed to work VI9NI
with my basic K2, loading my short 80m vertical antenna. The K2 tuner would
only manage a SWR of 5:1 on this, and therefore the power was rolled back to
about 3w on the radio.

 

Norfolk is my 9th country on Top Band, in 9 years of hamming... At this rate
I should make DXCC on 160m by the time I'm 140 or so.

 

Regards

 

David, VK2NU
