Look for a used emtech.
Very good rig for the money, my only beef with the
one I built was it has a bit of background hiss.
The variable filter worked well, a real VFO (stable), room
for a big battery inside, along with a charging circuit, 5 watts
out, very nice....

Not sure if they still make new kits, maybe only for 20 meters.

Almost elecraft like, without the computer control...
