Caity and all, any idea at what point (s/n?) the receiver sensitivity 
improved?  I have a 6N2 and
wouldn't part with it.  There are so few out there that they are now a 
sought-after item.

I like your suggestion of having 1.25m coverage, and this would be a 
good place for T-T to step
up to the plate.  The Japanese radios don't have that band because it 
isn't an amateur band
outside of our region.
