[Elecraft] K3 at VP8ORK

The So. Orkney micro-lite DX-pedition must be using a K3 on 160M. They heard my
barefoot K3 so they must have had the APF feature on. I needed to turn on APF to
hear them on the Topband. VP8ORK was DXCC country #222 on 160M with 100 Watts.
My antenna is an Inverted-L (30' vertical, 100 ft horizontal) with 16 short (1/8
wavelength) radials. 

The K3 worked great in last week's CQ 160M CW contest. It's great being able to
work with so may high power stations so close to my run frequency. The K3 is a
superb performer!
