[Elecraft] Re: Aspiring ham!

[Justin Croonenberghs]

Wow! I can see I made a wise choise in Ham, with so many friendly
people responding! I've got an avalanche of email to get through to
thank you all for your advice...I hope I don't forget any. If I do,
sorry! TOO MUCH EMAIL!

At least it's not spam.

I think I will probably build a K1 after the K2, because I'm really
digging this Morse thing. I sat down with a Morse training program and
learned 4 letters this afternoon at 15WPM, so I'm feeling cocky and
stuff. That, and kits are fun.

Anyway, gotta get back to work. Thanks again!
