Was wondering... (1) Are there any kind of "users" groups for the rigs? (2) Do the rigs have any popular "mods" published? Direct replies to would be appreciated, but will check back here also. 73 es TNX in advance Steve, K4YZ Hi Steve, I got frustrated with their site ( dial up here). All I could find was the boards for the rigs at $80 each. They show them in a cabinet, but darned if I could find the cabinets. Anyway, I would really consider the Elecraft K-1 or KX-1 kits as an alternative with lots more features/perfomance than these rigs. Hey Dale.... I e-mailed them some time ago and they said they weren't going to market the cabinets any longer...You'd think they could at least change the site to day so, eh? And in researching it a bit more, I see they once offered that add-in AF filter, but now only make reference to it as a "Handbook" project. I was leaning to the EMTECH kits from reviews I read in HAMBREW in the 90's (96? 97?) It's on the website too... But in any case, I liked the appearance of the rig and the extra power was nice too... I'd love the Elecraft kits myself too...especially the K2, however justifying the almost $400 expenditure to Mrs K4YZ would be a bit problematic! 73 Steve, K4YZ |
