GM all on the BB,
Great little article Tim. I might add they were selling the Kenwood TH-F6A
for $239 at
Dayton Hamfest this year. If Tim had done this exercise a month ago, I
would have had
one in my collection. Keep up the testing Tim, I always wonder what's next
in your bag
of tricks!
I usually work the FO-29 using a TH-F6 as the downlink receiver from mobile.

Will any of these receive the NOAA Polar Orbital Satellites in the
137MHz range without modifications? I see the receivers do have a
Wide FM (W-FM) mode but is it wide enough? My PCR-100 can be set at
50khz wide bandwidth to receive without modifying.

one might do it for
you. There's also AM, SSB, and CW.
