I do like all of these new things. If all DX'ers had that new SPL feature there would have not been as much QRM on the BS7H stations. Good work Ten Tec. (I did work them on ssb in the last few hrs.)
Not so at all. Propane will start when gas or diesel will not. I have a 10K propane on a 500 gal. horizontal tank Yes, mucho surface area. It starts fine in the teens or 20ies. But, and this is a big

Hi Al. Sure good to hear from you. Hope to see you at the Huntsville Hamfest, Aug. 20 and 21. I still like the Orion. Sent it back (in warr.) last year for some updates, not a problem since. Had an O

Hi Jason. Never had a 425, so can't add anything. BUT, the Mouser web is very detail. You may have to take the old fan out and measure it for a match. Wish I had more info. 73 Josh Josh, Read your la
