[Elecraft] KPA500 Clicks

[Fred Jensen]

Finally!  An advantage to being nearly deaf ... mine doesn't.  At least, 
if I can't hear it, it isn't there, that's my story and I'm sticking to 
it. :-)  Since I use headphones 100% of the time, I doubt I'd hear it 
even if I could hear.

FT5ZM is S9 [i.e. -73dBm, I calibrated my K3 with my service monitor] on 
14023 here in Auburn CA [No Cal] right now.  Pileup is only about 30KHz 
wide.  Strangely, it's about that wide, although a bit sparser, when 
he's transmitting too. :-)  I understand they're running Elecraft gear, 
or at least a lot of it.

Since Amsterdam Is. is reasonably close to our antipode, I figured I'd 
likely hear all the Up Cops but never them.  I'm really surprised.

73,
