This morning I made my first contact with my new K2 (serial #6870)!  I enjoyed a 
solid CW QSO with K4PHA near Atlanta on a noisy 40-meter band with thunderstorms 
in the area.  I was running 4 watts into my old Cushcraft R7 trap vertical, and 
Ben gave me a nice 559.

I would like to publicly thank all of the members of this list who responded to 
the questions that I posted from time to time during construction.  With no 
intention of offending anyone that I might leave out, I would like to 
specifically thank the following people:  Don-W3FPR, Gary-KI4GGX, Bill-K6WLM, 
Dave-G3TJP, Alan-KA9UCP, Jeff-W7BRS, and Phil-KB1FIY.  People like these really 
make our hobby the great community that it is.

I would also like to thank the customer support people at Elecraft.  In my 
experience their help and service is without equal!

73,
Paul - N8XMS
