Bill, <\/b><\/div>\n
Thanks for coming back to my call. It was a thrill to finally catch you on the air.<\/b>Like I said my Soldersmoke marathon was amusing and kept me in great company on <\/b>my round trip drive from Murphy NC to Chicago. While I was in Chicago I emptied my <\/b>storage garage of goodies that have been there for 12 years, it was like Christmas in June. <\/b>I uncovered treasures I didn’t know I even had and yes I found the box of project boards <\/b>that kind of or didn’t work at all. I now have these treasures to play with and see with renewed <\/b>eyes what I may have done wrong, or burned up. It looks like a few of these modules can be made into rigs.<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/b><\/div>\n
I also found a couple of antennas that I traded for that never made it up.<\/b><\/div>\n
Also the bigger surprise was how many parts I had kept especially the ICs that were intended to be<\/b>used in rigs like the LM373’s that Pete has talked about. I have one test circuit board to test the <\/b>LM373 that just needed the oscillators so with my SI5351 breadboards I have what I need to get this going. <\/b><\/div>\n
<\/b><\/div>\n
Now that I’m settled into my new QTH in the wilds of western NC I will noodling and tinkering more<\/b>to get my little DSB rig on the air and an LM373 based SSB rig too, using mostly or all obsolete\/vintage parts. This is something I have been noodling about for sometime now.<\/b><\/div>\n
I also will get my MMM finished. <\/b><\/div>\n
<\/b><\/div>\n
Thanks again for the QSO and I look forward to working you again. Now to melt some solder.<\/b><\/div>\n
