Kevin - thanks for the early checkin on 40 meter CW tonight. When I checked in this afternoon on 20 I was using my K3 and KPA500 at about 450 watts. Tonight on 40 I fired up the ion-smasher: a SoftRock Ensemble RXTX, running a whopping 1 watt into an 88 foot long doublet at 45 feet. 73, Jim / W6JHB
