There's a big RCA 5kw unit for sale up your way too, on epay for the
same price. Missing its external iron, but looks pretty nice. Would
easily cover an entire wall of your house.

My Raytheon RA-1000 is now residing in Gray Maine with John, N1MMD.
Didn't think I'd ever find anything that big I'd want again, but
recently came across something even bigger. Great fun!

We'll expect a full report at NEARfest in May....
