I agree Julius. Sunspot Cycle 24 may be my last chance to enjoy 10 & 15
meters. Looking through a Ha solar telescope reveals a Sun that is waking up
big time. The California QSO party is my objective time to have a P3
up-and-running and to have efficient strategies ready to employ in the
contest.

 

Although I got my Novice ticket in 1957, I've never enjoyed Ham Radio as
much as today. The reason is that a small company, Elecraft, has combined
unequaled effectiveness, reasonable cost, fast upgradability, and
unsurpassed service. The K3 has earned Elecraft a place in the Ham Radio
Hall of Fame. Their success is our success. I'm looking forward to the P3.
