I have a very loving and understanding XYL.  For Christmas, she gave me a 432 mHz Elecraft transverter kit.  I already have the internal 2 meter transverter in my K3, so this increases my available bands for VHF/UHF contests by 50% (from two to three). 

Now I just have to get the kit assembled, aligned and field-tested before the January VHF-UHF Sweepstakes (Jan 21 weekend).  Shouldn't  be a problem, given the relative non-complexity of the kit.

One question for the group:  I don't own a UHF-capable noise generator. Is there an alternative means available to adjust alignment? 

I'm getting sooo tired of having to tell other contesters that I only have 2 and 6 meters available! That's about to change. 

Next up:  222 transverter!
