I appreciate it, and also, thanks to everyone that responded to my message as
well. Was a lot of good information presented to me. I went to the AA5AU sight
too and was almost overwhelmed with good information there also. I will spend
the next few days going over it and deciding what will work best with the
existing equipment I have now, and add additional equipment later as needed.
Funding will not allow me to upgrade my radio at present, but I saw several
bench projects thet looked interesting, and should work fine.
Also, I don't know if I will do any contests just yet, but may be something I
will be interested in doing later down the road. For now, I want to make sure I
get the basics down "again", and get comfortable with that, then I will take
the next step up.
Again, thanks to everyone for their help.
Best 73's
