Same here, Larry re building and experimenting. 
Oddly, as computer focused as I am -- three in the 
shack and two in the house, with OS X (release and 
beta), Win 7, Win 8.1 and Linux -- I seldom use 
one in ham radio, expect when operating PSK31. 
Maybe one of these days I'll make it into the 21st 
century, ham-wise :-)
