Yes I have one also...I made a moxon out of coat hangers and regularly work the fm sats...what I want is to work some ssb says like ao-7....
I have an rtl- sdr for receiving via sdr console v2.
I'm thinking of converting the BITX40 to 10 meters and using one of those Russian transverters for xmit...

Hi David,?
I know.? These Bitx40 kits are excellent.? Glad you're having fun. It took me more time to make a box than to get on the air.?
If you want to get on 70cm cheaply I suggest the Baofeng uv-5r. They are an HT that run about $39. I've had mine for about 4 months and I've only had to charge it twice with stock battery. Accessories are super cheap online as well.?
I think I got mine from if I remember correctly.?
Cheers
