Wow .. sounds like a blast .. take someone else's stuff, strap it onto your car, drive around and talk to each other. No tuning necessary, don't know why you waste money on rotators and antennas .. I

In case there are other K2/XV owners .. this is the solution to this particular problem :) http://w3fpr.com/ptt_input_for_the_elecraft_k2.htm I use all four XVs for the Jitney's low-band station, and
So I'm thinking about how to get my TE 400W 2m amp back online. I see some new MRF-247s on ebay for a reasonable price, will I run into trouble if these are not a matched quad? On an unrelated topic
I'd like to thank and congratulate the NTMS guys for putting on a great conference. It was my first MUD and I learned a ton of stuff, met a bunch of great people, and accquired most of the remaining

Would there be any interest in having these available in the US if I decided to buy a small stock? Which sizes might interest people? Please email direct! They're tin-plated, solderable, 0.5mm thick
