Finally going to use the General privileges of my license, had it since August 2014 and no I'm going to use it. I picked up a Radio Shack HTX-10 it was a decent price and it'll get my feet wet. Still waiting for it to be shipped, but I'm already planning for it. Already built a 10m dipole, don't need to do much of anything to get it hung at about 21' E-W horizontally, however, N-S, might have to go inverted V. I have an SWR meter/matcher that supposedly does 10m-60m, Even rigged an only CB whip to give that a shot, need the radio before cutting.
Here's my problem, I'm interested in digital modes. Sure I might be able buy something that could work, but I'd rather build.
Anyone know of any good plans to build a digital interface for the radio?
