[Elecraft] MMIC's the easy way.

[Larry Phipps]

I have been real happy with the Gali series from Mini-Circuits... they 
are strong, quiet and super easy to use. I have used them in several 
critical applications with great success... much beter than the oder MAR 
series. They cost a couple bucks each, and are in a SOT-23 case.
