Mike, et-al,

Hank Brown, W6DJX gave an interesting talk on the SCR-183/283 at the  
2009 MRCG meeting at Camp San Luis Obispo, CA.  Pictures and  
discussion of the Xtal modification included along with much more  
information.  Contact me for a DVD covering this and other interesting  
presentations given during the event.
