*Even my 50 year old Heathkit HW-12 Single Bander has a Digital Display.*
*Check it out below......*

* None of the rigs are cut up or done up so that the mods can't be
reversed. Separate project boxes for my goodies. And I do love to play
around with the New Chinese stuff, that was not available 20 years ago,
unless you had Big Dollars to spend... Just call me Retired. ( or is that
Retarded? ).. Every Day is Saturday except Sunday.... And maybe a little
bit silly too! Television has gone to the Dogs and we can only stand so
much of the XYL's Honey Do list ............... And Tony, it is always
great to hear you on the Nets.*
