Andy we have a Yahoo group devoted to part 15 operation. There you can
post pictures, files, and schematics. Please join and post pictures of
your rig. Many are looking for multimode rigs to take advantage of the
many digital modes available.
I for one would like to see pictures of your rig. I didn't understand
from your post that you already had one. I wouldnt be so patient as you
I would fire it up!!!.
Good luck. Ive been licensed 50 years as of this July. Lowfer operation
and beacon chasing is the most fun I've had in years. I dont think this
is on the perifery, Warren, Jay, John, and Bill Bowers to name a few
are the cutting edge. I have been on the air for about 18months and
have enjoyed more sucess that I imagined when I started.
