Fellow crafters, It is misting rain, but on my lunch hour, I put the 15m ant on the back of my recumbent bicycle, hooked up the K2 and worked the VP6 on ssb. #74 ssb coutry for the /bicycle mobile set up running 8 w or less. Is the K2 a good ssb radio?? I think so. 73, Mike K5NU K1 #63 K2 #381 K3 #316
