It’s quite late and I really should have gone to bed but I simply couldn’t resist to turning on the K1.

FT-817 Receiver is Great
I have had some nice QSO’s on 20 meters. I had to turn the power down to 2.5 watts because the power supply I was using got quite hot. The FT-817 does indeed use a lot of Amps when running at 5 watts and 14 Volts.
