Re: Ashhar, thank you

Richard Andrew Knack All Messages By This Member #22183 Yes, thank you very much Mr. Farhan! I miss the old days of Heathkit and Ten Tec selling reasonably priced (and not so reasonably priced) kits for ham radio equipment. Kits for HF transceivers, except the rock-bound Chinese QRP CW kits, tend to be very expensive for the most part, especially on a factory worker's wages (at least where I live). While I already have a couple of operational HF transceivers, I am once again experiencing the joy that comes from a "do-it-yourself" project. Keep up the good work!

I saw first hand the effects of the changes that I made (mostly to the VFO). ? ?I wouldn't try this on a "big rig" for fear of royally screwing up.? But I am dedicated to getting the BITX working the way I want.? Many happy hours of puttering around with the board. ? I wonder if there is a Ham Radio Karma ? ?

Building and modifying radios is a great education. Lack of access to elmers and and radio builders' community, absence of test equipment : all impede the spread of homebrewing. With the BITX40, we hope to recover that ground and encourage more and more people to get on air, modify, experiment, build and learn. So, go head, make that mod you wanted to. We all know that you are not making a profit especially when shipping is included. ?So, I just want to say Thank You! I also know there are a lot of Hams that are saying Thank You Look at the activity in this group, a lot of Happy Hams! Thank you and God Bless, and from all of the Ham Radio Community to you, a Big Thank You! ???????????????????????? Eddie – kj4fgi
