[Elecraft] K3 and Field Day

[Terry Schieler]

I worked Eric about six months ago.  Sent him a QSL card because I wanted to
confirm working K3.....Serial number ONE!  Never got a reply.  But that's
OK, cause he must get tons of mail and I'd rather he spend his time doing
more of what those guys do best!

This is an awesome post, which I am gonna save.  These are the conditions
for which a really cool radio should be designed. You certainly reach the
largest audience with a radio that copes with all that. The next challenge
will be one that will work VU4 with that setup.
