[HBR] WARC bands?

[Bill Cromwell]

Hi Ian,

That adds yet another conversion stage to what is already a multi 
conversion lashup. We can avoid one whole set of birdies by making those 
coils so that additional oscillator/mixer is avoided. But the converters 
*are* one means to an end. Have I mentioned that I am now favoring 
single band and even single mode radios? That along with separate TX and 
RX. Whut burdies? Having plug-in coils like the HBR is a step closer to 
a single band receiver.

73,
