A bit more on the "what can the K1 do" front.  I completed my K1 #02326 
on Feb 26, 2007.  It went together flawlessly.  I have worked 3 QSOs 
this morning from the mobile on 40 meters with a Workman hamstick.  
Since Feb 26, I have worked 414 QSOs in 48 DXCC entities and 29 states.  
All the QSOs have been either on solar power (4 Siemens 55 watt panels 
and 2KW-hr storage) with a 1/4 wave 40 mtr ground plane and 3 element 
yagi, or from the car.  Main rig is IC756 PRO III which I love, but the 
K1 gives a level of satisfaction that the PRO III cannot provide.
