[Elecraft] K1 high demand...

[Fred Jensen]

While running in Field Day a number of years ago with Rich, NU6T, I had 
my K2/10 and he had his K1.  Part way through the day, we exchanged 
radios since I'd never seen a K1 and I found out what a really cool 
little radio that really is.  Nothing digital except the display, it 
just really sounded great.  I noticed that strong signals would "pull" 
the frequence just perceptibly which was a little like a signal with a 
slight chirp.  Almost never heard anymore but somehow a little comforting.
