Thanks for the super August Banner. The breadth and depth of knowledge, plus the wry sense of humor possessed by our fellow hams never ceases to amaze and delight. Thanks for delivering the news in a

Jim, Wonderful report. Inspiring all the way around. Thanks! Don W6BOW

Jerome, Fascinatin' stuff. Thank you for sharing. Don W6BOW

NG3P, Thanks for the info. I have a strong feeling that the Ozark Patrol should do just fine paired with a stand alone TX. Years ago I constructed (scaled to 30 M) the "Universal QRP Transmitter" desc
