Hi Ron,

If you manage to get your hands on some Scout modules, and you're interested in 
building your own QRP gear, take a look at my web page:

http://www.karinya.net/g3txq/cubii/

where you'll see my design for a QRP SSB/CW transceiver using the modules.

Welcome to the list and,

73

     Intro- VE8RT, Ron in Yellowknife, NT, Canada

  First licenced in 1970, been through quite a few calls since.  Most recently 
  VE8RT since February 2006.

  Currently using my OMNI-A, after shelving my IC-703 and IC-735 temporarily.  
  The IC-703 repeatedly blows the pre-driver IC (IC-101), and the IC-735 
  doesn't seem to have as quiet a noise floor as the OMNI-A.

  Reason for joining the list - I'm been looking into building my own QRP gear 
  and in the meantime I've been watching e-bay for a good Argosy, Scout, or 
  Argo.  Unfortunately e-bay prices seem unrealistic, even for an analog 
  Argosy, and a Scout seems to come with only one band module with additional 
  modules selling for around 70 $ and up.  I'm hoping to become more familiar 
  with these models and keep an eye open if anything of interest comes up for 
  sale.

  About my signature file,  I do avionics maintenance for a living, and a 
little 
  volunteer work for aviation missions, and I like this reference to flight.

     Ron T.
