Well said Ed, I'm having fun planning my constructional activities for this
winter.  And this weekend, I get to start the real fun!  Can't wait to get
into the first kit (1250 MHz ATV Tx) of the season, and many more to follow.


Certainly has more of a feel about it than stringing together black boxes.
:-)

DSP, microwaves, kits - all good things for the hobby, IMHO. :)
