[Elecraft] XV 222 Alive and Well

[bills4570@att.net]

All,

My XV 222 was completed last week, and it aligned and tuned up perfectly.  
Have only made one QSO with a local VHF enthusiast, so it's a little early to 
make any performance observations. 

For those who are waiting for the kinks to be worked out, I would say "jump 
on in".  The XV 222 is ready to go and building it is pretty straightforward. 
It's very easy to get full 20 watt power output. I'm adding the XV to my VHF 
contest capability, and I expect it to be a big improvement over an HT on 
that band.
