[VHFcontesting] SunSDR2 HF/VHF Transceiver

[Les Rayburn]

I looked into the Fox 1-1 a few years back. Most of the comments in 
DUBUS magazine, and on Euro
VHF sites were "mixed" at best--and many were pretty negative. I don't 
pretend to understand all the pros
and cons of various SDR approaches, but there seemed to be real problems 
with the Fox design.

Just added a buffer amp to my IC-910H (had it added by Scott at MTS in 
Washington) that will allow
outputting the IF frequency of the radio to an SDR receiver, and provide 
a panascope. Even this will
be a boon during openings, and I can't wait to start experimenting with it.

The modification was developed by VK2DAG and information can be found here:

Cheap access to 222 and 902 would be very welcome indeed. Can you 
imagine an "all in one rig" that might
get you to over 3 GHz!!!??
