You have no idea how much it would please me to be able to communicate full duplex on 75 meters. And I am not at all sure that won't be possible given the characteristics of some of the new modes! I make no claims to be able to see all of the future possibilities but you can be sure that I have no intention of returning my Flex radio! And I want to thank all of you who participated in my poorly done informal effort to find out how those fine people who share my interests think. By doing so I hope to improve the effectiveness of my mentoring and elmering which, to date, has been somewhat disappointing. Of the seven I have attempted to help in the last two years only two have, as we might say, borne fruit. I want to improve on that as well as obtain better returns on my rather substantial financial inventment! The XYL says I have to learn more.
