It only has the stock - including the two ham bands 20m and 80m that

can make custom crystals for the radio. *I expect that I will try to
get some for 60m and for 13.5 - 14 MHz. *Since each one requires the

I'll get fancy and come up with an easy system for plugging crystals
in and out with a variable cap so I can get other bands. *We'll see.
I still need to perfect my cornball antenna system.

ICM in Oklahoma still makes them.

Cool - I'll check them - thanks!
