NS-40 Class E Transmitter

Comments From Keith Price, WA5LPW, Memphis, TN
Hi Terry,
Not sure that my build was any different than anyone else. I was excited that it actually worked right out of the box! This is now my 4th kit to build that works (Doug's Simple keyer, Elecraft AF1, Two Tinned Tuna (no contacts yet)). So if I can build it, then anyone else can!
It was my first and only contact thus far. Since I did not have any BNC connectors for the antenna I had to use alligator clips from the antenna to the pl-259 end of my 40 meter Windom. Somehow a signal left the NS-40 and traveled the 100 feet to the antenna and then to the OP in Florida. He gave me a 459 signal report vs. his 539. I was very excited about that contact."
