Just a little thing before the chronicles... I've never got involved in HF because there was almost no possibility of build a serious rig (IMHO I think that buy a commercial radio and go to DX haunt is not too much HAM RADIO). Lurking on the Web I found Elecraft, read some stuff and got more and more tempted... Then the Order was sent.... On February 4th the Package with all the stuff has arrived. Yesterday night the rig became alive and working well inside the specs. What can I say Great RX at the very least Soon I will start with the assembly of the the SSB board, then the noise blanker, the DSP board and at last the 100 W amplifier. BTW the manuals are very precise and no part is missing from the bags (Good Job Cristine!). The construction is straight forward even for a newbie on the HF bands as I am . (But to be honest I've a certain exp. on SMD soldering for microwave transverters so the parts appears to be very big and easy to manage !!!)
So Keep building! 73 to all the reflector members de Giulio IW3HVB (Venice, Italy) _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
