[Elecraft] My First KX1 QSO

[alan p]

I just finished my first Elecraft Kit, a KX1 with ATU.  Hooked it to a G5RV on 40 meters, called CQ and Malcolm EI8FH in Dublin answered my call.  Talk about a thrill!!.  Elecraft kits are fun, plus  the excitement of actually talking to someone on the other side of the ocean on something I built,  is a high point in a 34 year ham career!  Thanks Elecraft and VE1RGB and VE1DY for pushing me in this direction.  73 Al
