 still need to put it all together. That's where the incentive could be lost.

You've also spent a lot of time and money on something that is not as useful 
outside of contests. There's the six meter Es, 2meter AU and MS, etc. even 
when contests aren't happening. Not much occurs on 2304 most of the time. Even 
if 
there was, with the bandwidth of 4 loopers odds are I wouldn't hear it.
