Given: SB-220 240VAC, fully modded with Harbach and Measures addons.
STILL trying to get outside the ham bands for MARS...
What I would really like is to have a 6 tap bandswitch
set for
2.2mhz
3.2mhz
4.0mhz
5.0mhz
7.2mhz and
14.0mhz
actually, I would not mind adding a couple more but that will do.
however, while Harbach has the bandswitch wafer, I do not know what it
would take to set the taps to these freqs - IF it could even be done.
I am sure that I will have to add another plate coil for 160m.
so, assuming the above to be a formidable task...
I wonder how difficult it would be to add a 160m position to the
present bandswitch wafer or to add the Harbach SW-100 --

Also, I have RMeasure's mss on adding the 160m to the SB-220

while there is someone selling a two page document with parts list on
ebay for $10.00 .

which is the better way?
has anyone done this?
Advice please?
thanks 73 de chas/ k5dam
