 I know 1Kilo seems like it could be acceptable (and probably should be an
acceptable alternate) but I doubt Dave here being logged as
KiloFourJulietRadioBravo would be acceptable as a callsign even if that is
the way he sent it.  Maybe K in the log but being phonetically sent as Kilo
would be proper.  Dan, KI6X

I looked at my log and several LU's sent 1 kilo which I have always logged
as K.  I put exactly what they say in my contest log (K, KW. 1000).  I
remember KH6BZF sending 59 thousand which I logged as 591000.

I suspect the stations worked put K in as their sent power.

But 1kilo should be correct also. And what about 2 kilo that I have heard in
the past??  You would have to log as 2K or 2000.
