I read yesterday that one Tentec'er was using a pair of Pegasai to 1.monitor
the band with the bandscope and 2.followup any acitivity seen on the
bandscope with the other Peggi. I do something similar. I use an Icom 796
on 6 meters. I use a Kenwood TS-830 with a Ten Tec T-kit 6 meter receive
converter bolstered by the T-kit preamp. The 830 is connected to an SM-220
scope with panadapter. I use a good antenna switch to change the 5 element
beam between the 706 and 830. I can see the band on the scope 75 kc above
and below the 50.125 calling freq. If a blip happens, note the freq, switch
ant to the 706, zoom in and call if I wish. The T-kits work very well. Fun
to use in this manner...Lee K7INU
