Things were sort of slow during IOTA, so during my many breaks, I did 
some work on a project I've been thinking about for quite a while. You 
may recall extensive analysis of receiver performance that has been 
around for a while, but the mess of clicks, splatter, and noise, 
especially during contests, has convinced me that TX noise performance 
needs serious attention.

This time around, I haven't measured a thing -- all I've done is take 
ARRL's data off the graphs that are part of their testing of various
rigs and plot them on the same graph. This makes it easy for us to 
compare one rig against another. The data may, or may not, surprise you.

The fruit of my labor is at k9yc.com/TXNoise.pdf

This is a work in progress, and comments are appreciated.
