Randy, Yep KC9CDT Ocala,FL, previously WA8OJC since 1966 a Ham Radio guy.
I did keep my Drake radios.....
Going to play a SX900 today, about an hour away drive....So far all the demos etc are pretty darn good.
I may put a 61 note MIDI kbd under it and have a organ setup...we usually only had about 44 keys each manual on spinet organs so 61 is basically a console organ!
We will see...
Thanks,
Lee
Lee - nice to meet you KC9CDT - I got my ticket in '70 as WA3TMO. I agree the challenge is heavy to decide which toy to turn on. My feelings are similar to yours...the time I spend on the keyboard potentially gets me much more for the investment than racking up contacts around the globe.
Enjoy the SX900 playing today!
