Thanks - yes, I was including that in my verbal "equipment" bundle.
Looks great!

Moreover, no PC near the radio. So, more hardware too. I am
(probably to your chagrin) a pretty old-fashioned guy when it comes to
radio. I like the catch to be fairly tough (although QRN sucks).

Like I said, my antenna is 30' away from my computer. I live in a
neighborhood with underground power lines and no detectable light
dimmers. I can hear very weak stations from Europe that no one else on
the West Coast of the USA can get. I can watch my razzle dazzle
receiver from from work.. great fun.
