Interesting rig...

I'm not 'going to some site and fostering competetion'... I was looking 
for info on the 4-65 earlier, and came across this rig by Energy-Onix.

Most of the rest of the day, was looking around for a price.  I 
-finally- found -this-.  This is interesting information, if a Ham 
happens to have a non-conforming XYL who doesn't understand the need for 
that 'big ugly pile of junk (if you're a home-brewer)

Rob,
  Check out this web page:

http://www.energy-onix.com/HTML/Catalog%20Sheets/Pulsar%20250%20500%20B.html

That is the Pulsar 250B or 500B

The 250B is a perfect stand by, if one feels compelled to have a stand
by transmitter. I'm not a big Energy Onix fan, but that's a good choice.
