Amps
Is the THP HL-50B, or other 25-50W amp, available for sale in the
US? Any homebrew designs for an 80-10M no-tune amp?
Tnx/73,

Hello Jim,,
Many thanks for your comments.
I think for the people who live in the region, I don't think there
is any

Bonnie,
Can you be a bit more specific on your PM hikes? How much transmitting
would you think? How much total time is the radio "on"?

Blinky power level icon (Was: Power adjust)
The "blinky" L3 (highest low-power level) icon appears when you select
