Steve:
Congrats on the new amp, and thanks for the understanding, and the vote of
confidence.
I know that, sometimes, I probably worry too much, but it's better to be
safe and relatively sure, than being unsafe and sorry later.
P.S. I should probably change the subject line for this, but are you going
to do either of the NAQP contests the next two week-ends?
I'm planning on doing the CW for sure, and maybe the SSB.
And, if I can get time between all of the work I need to do to get the next
teaching semester started, I'm going to try the digital and voice record
modes on the TS480. Should make contesting more fun than ever.
