[HBQRP] SW 30 status report

[Joe Eisenberg]

Hi all!
At the risk of finding large objects thrown my way by those in the group 
that have only started building the project, I finished the board on 
Saturday evening.  I don't have the pots/cables kit, nor the enclosure yet, 
so I haven't tested it yet.  I'll look to see how I can test it stage by 
stage and I have found the Elmer 101 book incredibly detailed and 
educational.  Not a single component is overlooked in detailed descriptions 
of what it does!  Darrel, I will need to get a pots/cables kit ASAP if 
possible.  Then, I think once mine is going, I can be of help to everyone 
else working on this radio.
73, Joe KØNEB
