New Jupiter on the air. First QSO RZ9IZ 14.010.3 01:36z 3W 559, 20W 579 :-)
Sergey nr Tomsk where the temp was -35C!  I was just checking SWR and there he
was calling CQ. 

check out the pictures of Jupiter and new 963PS at:

Very nice feature == PBT, RIT, XIT all zero out if button held for a few sec.
Every control intuitive. Have yet to open manual :-)

One discovery is "HIGH BOOST" where higher audio freq from RX are boosted for
older hams who need a bit of help to hear the tough ones!  they haven't
advertised this and it REALLY WORKS (for this OT)! Very thoughtful
engineering.
