A terrible tragedy that happened there. My sister lives in San Angelo which had some flooding, but not like Kerrville. Our prayers go out to all, and God Bless.

I had a 5825B. It had some intermittent issues that could not be resolved although it had been to a few shops. The double board made it a little more difficult to repair. I think Mikes Radio had a video on it, or was it the earlier 5825. I wish I had found someone to fix it as I liked the look...

This is the RF Sampler I built. I had a couple of chassis mount SO239 and an aluminum project box and BNC connector already. I just had to buy the torrid. Works well. Same thing with a different torid: https://www.n4ga.com/50db-hf-rf-sampler/...

Nature at it's best. Kinda takes your mind off all the BS happening in the USA at this time...relaxing

Here are a couple of links you may have, or not. Information on the O21 https://www.radiomods.co.nz/pll02a.html https://www.radiomods.co.nz/integratedcircuits/pll02a.html If you have them, sorry for the repeats. This model was my first SSB radio and escalated my radio world. With a Radio...

My late father in law had a 2nd class license. He worked on it all, but was basically an old country boy who just had an infinite curiosity about electronics...and basically everything else from rebuilding car motors, working on AC, and also was a licensed union electrician. But I never heard...
