Hey, you're talking about some of my best work!
You forgot to mention lots of clip leads.
(I was once chastised by WB8MCS who told me, "No clip leads on the repeater!" ?That was back with tube receivers and transmitters and a real Carrier Operated Relay. ?We got mad at the kerchunkers because they would wear out the scrounged relays that we were using.) ----------- The other thing that I absolutely abhor is to see something like perf boards, relays, dead-bug components, etc. gimmicked up to cure logic level incompatibilities, or tailor audio levels, or add RC delays, or whatever, especially when they're dangling off the back of equipment like a voter or repeater chassis backplane. ?I'm sure you know the kind of hackery I'm talking about which, fortunately, in the more-modern digital age has become less and less of a problem in commercial realms than it once was, but still seems to live on in the hammy world.
