Hi Joel - hey, I lived in Northern Maine
for a couple of years, and everybody there
knows that in the wintertime you have to be
QRO. It's the only way the signals can get
through all the ice on the antenna. Actually,
I always started with my old KWS-1, using it to
warm up the wire. After a bit, I could then hook
up my qrp rig, and operate...
that is until it re-froze. Didn't save much
power, but did have a good time.
