I find most things eventually, just keep a mental list and keep a lookout. It can take years

There is an Amateur near Swansea that runs a Rolls-Royce Trent jet engine in the back garden.

Been looking for one of these for years, the matching atu for the Alinco DX70

Brazing, wouldn't the gas torch provide enough protection with the flame?

What you welding George? Not mild steel I guess

Your call sign is quite old. I thought it must have been a new license with a reissue 😂

I had some driver transistors fail on an Alinco, I only used it to receive. These things happen.

Got myself an MFJ 901b atu on the way. Had one a few years ago but sold it, this is why I hate selling stuff.

I'll stick with the LDG Rt-100 remote tuner for now. At least you can power it down with latching relays.

Remote tuners are ok but I don't want one in-line all the time

A matching unit for 30m at the coax feedpoint of the g5rv seems like a plan. Just connect at weekends

The display chip has a value as unobtainable these days

You need an ft817 😉

Nice inter-G on 30m at the moment, for those seeking refuge from contests.

Coming up to the time of year when I work into Europe on 6m ssb, with the standard ft817 rubber duck. Normally indoors too.

The other way is 450ohm back to the shack with a z-match or something.
