Do you have a schematic for it? That makes all the difference.

What is a Tetra radio? I've heard of Terra, but never Tetra.

Thanks, Bob K.

Yes. It's TERRA. Thank you.

Yes, Texas State Technical College in Waco Tx. is the current certificate holder for Terra. They have a flat rate repair cost that is very reasonable, and you can get AOG rush status if you need it in a hurry. 90 day warranty, they are quite good. I like the fact that the repair fees help support the college and its programs. A neat approach to education.

That is neat. I wonder if they want to build gliders...

Well .....you could......

Recruit interns, offer to pay room and board (rent a big ole house)
and teach them composite construction in turn for their work.

There are not many ways that a person can become skilled at composite
sailplane construction in the states.

That's what I've been doing. It turns out that not as many folks as
you might think consider that a good deal.

Thanks, Bob K.

FWIW, TETRA is the acronym for TErrestrial Trunked RAdio .... a product of a Motorola company. It's a Digital Radio System that is used for airport communications .... I believe initially used at a Hong Kong airport.
