Hi Lynn,
Thanks for the MFJ URL. I took a quick look at the manual, and it sounds
like an interesting product. I like the idea that the pins can be
reconfigured depending on what radio you have. It's also nice to have a
headphone jack available even though I don't have to worry about disturbing
anyone in my present shack.
