[Elecraft] 9M6XRO with my K2/10

Very cool.  Never ran QRP, but I have never run over 100 w; for antennas, I
have never had anything but a vertical or wire antenna.  It is a great
feeling bust'n a pile-up when you're a "little pistol."

Just got my K3 a couple of weeks ago after being QRT for about 4 years; the
rig is an absolute joy!  For an antenna I run an Inverted-L 120 ft long, up
30 ft at each end.

Making up for lost time; busted S01WS pile-up yesterday and J28NC this
morning.  Two new ones for me.

Today, there was a pileup on 9M6XRO (East Malaysia) on 10 meters.  Using my
K2 at 5 watts (my antenna was a Cushcraft A3S at about 24 ft in elevation) I
got through the pileup on about my third call.  What a surprise!

It's the first time I've broken through a pileup on QRP.  What fun!!

Thanks for reading.
