I was an Elecraft representative at Seapac in 2002 or 2003. I hooked
the K2 up to the metal framing holding the venue's curtains. There were
two pedestrian mobile stations to work and by the end of the day two
more fixed stations. So we were able to make contacts with each of
them. I brought some special QSL cards for the occasion and talked with
quite a few CW operators. The sound of CW brought many folks to the
Elecraft booth. It was fun to watch them copy in their heads as they
listened.
Load whatever you can and have fun.
