HW 7's/ QRP

[Sandy Blaize]

Have had all three of the Heath rigs, HW-7, HW-8 and HW-9.
I still have the HW-9.
I got a Ten-Tec PM2 and PM-3 way back.  The PM-3 was a really
successful rig for me!  I still remember working "ZL" one evening
on 20 meters with it barefoot and a dipole about 15' high!
I then got one of Ten-Tec's first "Argonaut" transceivers.
Used it mobile a long time.  Worked all over the Pacific with
it on 20 and 15 meters SSB!

I have been considering putting my HW-9 up on Ebay and
getting an Elecraft K2,  I hear it's a really spiffy CW rig!

QRP can be really great fun, especially with "makeshift"
antennas!
