Default 1,250 Miles per Watt!

Woohoo!!! Long Island, NY to Dijon, France...with 3 Watts! (3,749Miles
apart!) I was very excited to work HI with 5 Watts some mos. back, and glad
to feel likewise again last night. I didn't think I'd be able to be heard
through the other stations calling Paul, F9KP.

There's something I feel is worth mentioning. When he came back with a
partial call sign followed by a ?, the freq went dead silent and I was
allowed to repeat my call a few times completely in the clear...very kewl!

I did not use the K1 for this one. Instead, I used it's kissing cousin...a
NorCal 40 A.
