I am having a really EXCELLENT radio morning here at SolderSmoke East coast HQ. I made some progress on the Armand HRO receiver — just squaring away some of the too-long leads and improving the shielding a bit. Then I was looking out the window as the mailman arrived. What was that little box he was leaving us? Wow! A box from Hyderabad! The BITX 40 module arrived, wrapped in a very interesting piece of Hyderabad newspaper. Very FB. Thanks Farhan. I will surely be writing and talking about this rig in the weeks to come.
UPDATE: I just realized that the BITX module fits very nicely into a TenTec TPC-45 cabinet that Armand gave me a while back. TRGHS.
Beautiful! Enjoy!
Bill, cant wait to hear you on 40m. BTW, I will be running a non-test on Oct 30 (my birthday) for 3 hours. If you contact me on a homebrew rig you will get a qsl card and a NOS Tunnel diode. Time is from 9 to 12 CST on 7.170 +-5kc. 73, N6ORS Keith
