That is true but if you do a lot of band hopping you wear out the Up/Down buttons (and your finger). And yes, there is activity on the WARC bands. Especially on major contest weekends when the refugees hang out there. I have the QST/Far Circuits board in three rigs and need to get a couple more. There is absolutely no benefit to having a gen-you-wine AUX-7 over the FAUX-7 board unless you really want to have some fixed frequency crystals in the rig.

Not to discourage fabricating boards, but from what I can observe it seems like it would be faster and cheaper to just convert the TR-7/TR-7A to all band transmit using one of the two or three ways of doing it.
