[Elecraft] KX2 owner discovers Heaven/P

[Fred Jensen]

They taught us in survival and jump school ... Never try to catch a fish 
with your hands.  You'll expend way more calories than you'll get from 
the fish, which won't work anyway, and you'll just annoy the fish.  They 
never said, "Don't try and catch the fish with a KX3 and your antenna."
