XE2VVR
I heard XE2VVR Vic in Baja, California somewhere calling CQ on while listening with the K1 I'm testing, on 7031 mobile with the short 40m hamstick. Vic tried valiently and got my call, but QSB (mostly due to driving around) was bad and my signal just wasn't making it. At Amtech day someone (maybe WB6MLC Ken suggested that I run a loop around the inside of the frame of the car, and dispence with trying to put in straps. Probably I just need to put a better ground strap from the magmount to the roof first! I just have a short piece of zipcord right now.
