Morocco with a KX1

I make a quick contact with Morocco using my KX1 @ 3.5 watts. I still love my KX1. What an amazing little rig... 4 bands, built-in ATU, RF Gain, Filtering, Listen to USB/LSB, LED display, built-in LED lamp.

When this radio was created in 2003, it was like something out of the future - and it still holds its own against most QRP radios.

Nice to see you generating some more content Cliff. I always enjoy it.

I have one and it is a joy to use, especially when travelling. All I need is an antenna. It has everything else built in. Elecraft did it right the first time.

I am amazed at how far you can get with qrp. Well done, and thank you for sharing.

I did and I did - found one and grabbed it. You are right, the kX1 is a jewel. Thx Cliff.

MacRib LOL! I'm using a borrowed KX1 right now and would totally buy one if they came back. Was heard in NC from CA last night. 2300 Miles on an EFHW. 3.5W

as Im writing this I only have some regen Rx's that I have built from schematics to tune in the 40m band, I was trying to look for a KX1 with not much luck. Hope to see the McRib QRP rig soon or find a used one

Very Cool, Can you tell us what antenna you were using?

[rds]

What antenna do you use at your home QTH?

[ronstar]

What antenna? That's half of the equation.
