Hi.

I'm getting so many local noise sources around here that it doesn't really 
matter what I put on HF--I can't hear anything anyway.  It seems like I am 
getting a lot of digital crud from home consumer devices in neighbor's 
houses.  I sat up last night with the Sony ICF2010 and the HF listening was 
pretty bad.

Unfortunately, the group I used to go out with for Field Day has folded up, 
so I don't really have much of a reason to maintain a "go" pack.  II'm 
hashing over whether or not I want to keep the Icom 706 Mk IIg station or 
whether it is time to cash it in.

73, de Lou K2LKK
