	Maybe I'll give it a try "when I get the time"; I'll have to study up
more on how those modes work and how the transmitter is modulated. 
Straight CW would be by far the easiest mode to try.  Not sure how
stable the present exciter really is, but maybe good enough.  As for
Dave, haven't heard of him for many years and have no idea what ever
became of him.  Seem to remember he had a ham call, but don't remember
what it was.  Does anyone?
