 Well I have two version here Ivy.
 One is a single channel the other is a 5 channel one.
 Plans are to get the single channel ones on 52.500 or so at 100mW for some
local talking to a friend of mine down the road.
 It will be a cheap 6m rig for him and we can get away from some problems on 
2m
simplex that are happening here.
 Just have to get looking thru my crystal junk-boxes to find ones I need.
