    Has the world gone crazy

    Not needed but wanted... Alinco DJ-G7T radio. Most prices in Canada are over $500, HRO had them on sale, shipping, duty, exchange just over $320. Oh wait, yes honey I needed another radio.

    Pole Cat CB base antenna

    I had an old Rat shack base antenna that blew the match section. I constructed a matching ring similar to attached drawing. I tuned it for 10 metres and it would take everything a SB200 could put into it.

    What defines a good contesting amateur radio transciever ?

    Or hit an mountain top with a KX3 or KX2. Adjust the filtering down, wire 2 element yagi and you are good.
