I am in the process of selling my Alinco DX-70T HF+6M radio so as to raise
some money for a Downeast Microwave transverter.CHEAP!!!

My question is how difficult are the transverter kits to build? I have only
built one other kit in my ham life (Tentec 1210) a couple of years ago and
it worked when finished.

Debating whether to buy a kit of spend the extra money for a built and
tested unit since I only have basic electronics tools ie... soldering
iron,DVM,small tools.

Would hate to spend $300.00 and it not work or be ready for the Sept VHF
contest use! When for $400.00 I can relax and enjoy the radios instead of
the frustration.

PS: Patience is not my biggest virtue...
