[Elecraft] Another Happy KX3 Customer

[Ron Gruner]

I know this forum is for solving problems, but I've just got to let folks 
know Elecraft's got another happy KX3 customer.  I finished my kit 
yesterday, and after charging the batteries for 12 hours, thought I'd give 
the radio a try.  Hooked it up to my "Stealth Long Wire" antenna.  Set 
power to 5 watts and sent CQ a couple times (from Naples, FL) and who comes 
back?  DL8MX near Nurnberg, Germany!  He gave me a 559 and we had a nice 
QSO.  Not bad at all for the first QSO.

Everything went together perfectly with the kit, except for some missing 
screws which are probably on the floor around my work bench.  It's just 
great to see American companies still turning out world-class products like 
Elecraft.
