Chuck, would you or anyone else care to say exactly what 253 tuner
refinements are necessary? I got one several months ago for the Omni V and
Herc II but have never hooked it up. I did get a cable from Riley's for the
trio.

PS to list: Our Delta II has moved on to the shack of Larry KC9CSQ, who
could not talk me out of my Jupiter. We are thinking of replacing the Delta
with a (gasp) Kenwood TS-50S with CW filter. Comments and suggestions on
alternates are invited. Size and good QSK are major requirements.

The TS-480 is not being considered. Sure wish TT made a small 100-watt
mobile/base rig!
