I hope the ON at the other end was using an Elecraft radio too -  he was the
one doing the work!

After months of using my K3, I am spending time again with my K2.  It is set
up as a QRP model, and I recently upgraded it with the DSP option.

I had forgotten what a pleasure it is to use the K2.  I know that the specs
are not as good as its K3 big brother, but the receiver is still a thing of
beauty.  This morning I worked Belgium (from San Diego) with 5 watts.  The
op on the other end was surprised to hear California, much less a QRP
station.  There is definitely some mojo going on there.

So I don't know if I have a point, other than to remind myself and others
that the K2 is still a top-notch rig and I am glad I still have it.

73 and Happy Thanksgiving to all!

John, WA6L
