It says the unit is not yet in production and won't be available for
purchase by individuals. I wonder if they would settle for a Ham
Radio Club?<br>
<br>
At this point, I'd settle for something that looked sorta like a schematic, a parts list, and a list of suppliers. <br>
<br>
OK .... everyone ... all a t once, now ... 1... 2... 3... WISH!<br>
