This is real complicated stuff not for the beginner, for the cost of the collins mechanical filter u can easily brew 2 transceiers for 40m and 20m
addy,
I certainly agree regarding the Collins filter. I don't see why another xtal filter (he already uses *one*) wouldn't be entirely adequate. I know the Yaesu FT-817 uses a mechanical filter, but I don't know why. Is the Collins being used here because it's used in the Yaesu? To make a 817-like clone?
Actually, I kinda like building little rigs anyway. I wouldn't refuse an FT-817 (or wannabe) if it were given to me, but then I'd have no "legitimate" reason to build single banders. I'd have to actually admit I'm just playing. I've spent a lifetime building up a monument of phoney-baloney justifications. It's my most prized possession. I'm not about to knock it over now!
