Still here but sorta lost interest in the 2 390A's I have. One of these 
days..... There's not much wrong with them, but need a bit of work, 
especially around the oscillators. I guess since I don't want to use 
them on the air it's not that important. If there were a replacement IF 
strip and decent demod I'd be more interested. I tried the 455 osc 
downconverted to a sdr, but wasn't impressed.

There's a lot to do around the 55 acres to do here to keep me busy 
anyhow, between repairing the tractor and painting the patio furniture. 
But at approaching 77, I wear out easy and my feet hurt all the time I 
stand on them, so I find any excuse to sit down.

Work some FT8 on 80 through 6 with a smidgen of 2M. I've got some nice 
70' dipoles 80-10 and some H DoubleBay antennas 17 through 6. But I've 
been finding a lot of DX on 20M lately especially with 750W, Asiatic 
Russia and south Pacific. Even 12 and 10M have been working lately. 15 
is usually my fav.
