Always check during drive time... 7-9 am and 5-7 pm. And see if there are any nets listed on club web sites. And Tallman may be right about the digital thing... 73, Brett

That's funny right there! 73, Brett

I think the I think Icom has a model or two that do 1.2 ghz as an option. Seems like the Kenwood TS-2000 did, too. You.might find one o the used market? Love my RSP1, btw! 73, Brett

Thanks for the response! So, your mini has a firewire port, correct? I think the trick is to have a firewire card with a port. I can't add any ports to my laptop, so I would have to get a computer with firewire to make it work. The tech at Flexradio said the cable alone will not make it...

Hey! That reminds me! I need to take my meds. 73, Brett

I have emailed Alan with questions before, and he's a really cool guy. TONS of good information on his site. 73, Brett

It's been going on for a long time. I had a friend that bought a 746 Pro about 10 years ago, and HRO did it for him then. Truly not many MARS/CAP guys out there for the number of rigs that are converted. ;) 73, Brett

Again, from what I have seen, it is the guys that go portable on a mountaintop with qrp, but have an rv that they get there in. They want a smaller amp for limited space when they are stationary or at the rv park. Other guys get the qrp rig on the cheap, then just want more power. 73, Brett

As I mentioned befire, most of the people I have heard are running qrp rigs, and use the RM Italy amp to boost to 100 watts. I have never loaded my AL-80B with 5 watts, so I am not sure what the output would be. I have also heard that a lot of these guys are space limited, so a full size amp...

Yes, that is the guy. 73, Brett

Some of the folks that run low power Flex 1500's and Elecraft K3's use them to get 100 watts out... supposedly they work pretty good when you don't drive them to full output, and it's a heck of a lot cheaper than the alternatives. Seems like there was a guy that had a website where he did a...

<sigh> Here we go again. 73, Brett

Congratulations, and great job! 73, Brett

Glad you were able to get her fixed! I have a friend that lost a 590... could not be repaired. :( 73, Brett

I actually bought some led bulbs from these guys: http://www.centsibleamusements.com/pinball-led-lighting.aspx They have bayonet style led bulbs that are used in a lot of the old HF rigs. Thought they might have something that would work for you. 73, Brett

Have you tried any of the pinball sites? They have a lot of LED lights, and most are inexpensive. 73, Brett

I have not had a single problem with the three that I have... but they are probably 7 years old now. Not sure about the new ones? 73, Brett

I pretty much settled on the Ranger SRA-158 after fiddling with just about every power mic I could find. It's not a power mic, but plenty clean and clear. 73, Brett

Clubs that test usually provide study classes, too. I used the Gordo book and studied online. Depending on how much time you have to study, a month is certainly do-able. Good luck! 73, Brett
