Watch it - many of their kits (at least when I last built one a
few years ago) were marginal designs, sometimes illegal, and
used components of questionable quality. Two transmitters -
one enabled the PA before the PLL locked, so it swept noise
across the band, and one was a multiplier design with *no*
filtering so it splattered every 12 MHz up and down from 2M,
an amp with a long thin ground trace for the final, etc.
