Today, I activated Great Orme GW/NW-070. Eyebrows may be raised. I made one contact (a S2S with Steve GW1INK/P on Cyrniau Nod GW/NW-034) and then went QRT....
I have had success with a hard (ink) eraser used wet. The pencil marks turn into a grey slurry which can just be rinsed off and the sheets left to dry. -- ...

Hi, Thanks - your ideas match my own. I also thought about the K2 but it's too big. I want small and good. Rather than the K2 I may well buy the IC-7000 next...
