I live in PA but will be glad to operate from my parents' or sister's place down in DE one of these days, but there's a catch. I'm still building my new K2. :-) Last night I completed what the manual calls "Assembly, Part I" of the RF board. What a great feeling to power up the K2 to check out the control and display boards, and to hear the relays click and see the menus working. So far the only thing that hasn't quite reached recommended values is that my control board AGC voltage maxes out at 7.92 V rather than the 8 V mentioned in the manual. I'll have to search & see if anyone has reported a similar thing. Anyway, once the K2 is up and running I'll be glad to check into the net from Delaware once I make a portable dipole for 20m. Maybe another month, plus or minus a little. In my year and a half on the air as a ham I've never checked into a CW net, though, so that'll probably be an adventure itself!
