Don't know what all this 'milliwatts to a piece of wire' and disappearing
pile-ups is all about. I managed to work 'em on 20m cw yesterday (26th) and
the pile-up seemed as big as ever and required my K3/Acom 1000/qsk combo to
do it in the limited time at my disposal.
Problem here has been conditions - often VP6DX has been audible when the
working stations have not, and that makes things so much more difficult.
And the qsk with the K3/Acom 1000 and the single keying line works just
fine.......
