Re: QDX not receiving after replacing blown transistors
These DC-DC converters look interesting - is there any rule for figuring out which ones are going to generate RFI and which ones would be clean? Or is it just a case of pot luck then cover the wires

Re: Balloon over Canada
I'd like to see the Air Force poke a few holes in it and after it lands, see what it was actually doing. Personally, I think it was delivering paychecks to Joe and Hunter...but that's just a guess.
