[K3PZN-List] Inexpensive All Mode Rig

[eric blade]

Never being one to shy away from buying something I will just build and set on a shelf, I pulled the trigger.
Hoping to get free time to eventually get myself back and engaged with the hobby.

I imagine recipes are out there to add a small amplifier  - say 20 watts or so would be a nice one-S-unit boost.  such a rig should do well on digital modes (well all but RTTY in a contest ....).
