        Thanks Roy. SOMEONE had mentioned that one of the ham mags had a 
kit/project/plan or whatever for building a simple tone generator. Do you or 
anyone know whicn one it was or have a schematic for one? I only need to 
generate a few tones, and
although probably a good deal, $50 is pretty expensive for me.
        Going to have to stretch things seriously to buy the radio itself, 
which is why I was looking for that special mic or to find out if that was 
even what it needed.
