After a long absence from ham radio, i plan to get back soon.  I bought an
Icom 730 last fall, but it just didn't bring back the old thrill 

started when i was a teen with an HW-16 on code.  Now i a looking to sell
it.   I almost got an Omni D series B, but was second in line and so i
bought a Century 

22.  code was always my favorite.   So now i have to wait till this little
gem arrives. meantime any advice about the 22 will be appreciated.  

anyone ever make a small amp for one?  

 

do i need a tuner to protect the finals if i carefully measure an inverted
vee?  also, what is 30 meters like?  it wasn't around last time i was 

QSO'ing. 

 

my code speed is still decent - must be like riding a bike. i like straight
keys for my end. 

thanks for listening and i guess though these are expensive they probably
hold their value well.
