Yes cut numbers! Equally convenient and confusing if not expecting them - 1=a, 2=u, 3=v, 7=b, 8=d, 9=n and 0=t basically cutting out strings of more than 1 dahs in the numbers
We are about 20 years too late to get the original KC1, but the QRPGUYS have solved that problem. I haven’t tried one yet, but it looks like a cool kit. qrpguys.com/dj3kk-sprat-audio-counter
Hi Bruce. I have one of these kits from a now sadly silent key. But also so sadly the main mixer part is missing so I can't get it working. De HS0ZLQ. 😢😢😢
Are you missing one or more of the NE602 8-pin DIP packages? They are available online with some careful searching. Another solution is to get the more common surface mount part with a surface mount to 8-pin DIP carrier/adaptor.
@Steve-GM0HUU good point. NE602/NE612/SA602/SA612 will work. I had a thought too. You could also search on eBay for a “QRP Rockmite” and buy the kit for about $13 USD and use it for parts.

You might find a bit more 40 mtr activity if you didn't wait until midnight to film 😀😀.
Hi Bruce, do you know who sells the kc1 add on? A link would be great

@@tyrueiIMay be able to use NE612 as a straight swap for NE602. The NE612 is more readily available and possibly less expensive?
