[HBQRP] RE: [qrp-tech] NorCal Announces the 2N2xx CW Transceiver Kit

[Piatt, Darwin]

Yikes,
No, no, if I make a list, I might end up with one like yours and I'm not
sure I could recover from the trauma..  
Actually, the KX-1 is coming along well, it is not a hard rig to build,
just lots of darn coils to wind... :)  so far so good. The instructions
are well written and easy to follow.

I will have a case for the BITX-20 soon also, I think that will bf first
on the list after the KX-1 then maybe the MKARS 80's SSB Tranceiver then
the 2N22xx. Will be a long winter...

Hi Darwin,

Sounds like you are just getting deeper into kit building backlog... :)

Anyhow.. I have to much stuff sitting on the shelf to build this winter.
Enough so, that I really hope that winter is not so long as to give me
time
to finish them all!  It could be another ice age! I had best stay away
from
getting any more kits until I get at least some of my backlog cleaned
up!!! 

I went down into the work room and found that I have these things
waiting
for attention..

       Elecraft  W-1 watt meter
       KD1JV   QRP watt/SWR meter
Two    BiTx20A's with digital dial - one with a box on order for it.
Two    MKARS 80's SSB TxCevers
Four!  FCC-1's 
Two    FCC-2's
Two    KD1JV digital dials 
Two    AmQRP DDS-60's with DDS chips
       Vectronix 20M CW TX - to be converted to 30M QRSS TX
       CWKtiny kit from DL1JAN  for CW, QRSS CW, and Slow Helshriber
       Warbeler 80M PSK kit
       SWL PSK-30 kit  on order (forever)
       A second 35W HF-pack amp kit.
       LP-PAN Panadapter for the K3
       Elecraft KRX-3 2nd rx for the K3 - when it gets here..      
       AVR based DDS controler W/LCD readout
       AVR based QRSS keyer W/LCD display and PC Keyboard input.
       70cm Vertex/standard 10W repeater w/duplexer to be interfaced to
a 2M remote base via an
ICS linker2a controler. 

It could be a VERY long cold winter if I get all this done!

Just wondering if you have made a list yet Darwin?  It might scare you!
;)
