[1000mp] 6 Meter transverter

[bhyde]

My personal opinion is that the money would be better spent by buying
another radio with 6 meters in it.   Or,  even a single bander.  The
reason for this is that I often monitor 6 meters on my FT-920 while I am
working HF on my 1000MP.  If there is a 6 meter opening,  I don't miss it
because I am on another band.  With 6 meters,  openings can occur
suddenly,  and not last long.   I had a 10 min.  window into Europe on 6
just the other day,  if I would have been using a transverter and been on
HF I would have missed it. Also,  I finally got Japan for my last one for
WAC on 6.  It has been a great 3 months now on  6.    So,  thats my two
cents worth,  from a 6 meter nut.
