[Elecraft] News from Dayton?

You beat me to it!  10 cells would be much better than 8.
You can operate a while at 5 watts out with a 10 cell string
of batteries with the newer 2 ampere hour NiMH cells.

| A good idea, Tom, but how about 10, or even 11 cells to bring the 
| voltage up to 12 or 13.2V?
