seems like a good way to generate lots of RF hash. Yeah, I was wondering about that when I saw the $7 12vdc inverter.

I'd stick a couple of them in the airplane and exercise all of the radios before committing to a full EL illumination system. Hey where are you at in the countdown? The aircraft came out of the paint shop this morning; they're putting the finishing touches on it this week, and test flying it late this week and early next week. I'm going to the factory Tuesday to look it over and take delivery. -- Jay Maynard, K5ZC http://www.conmicro.com http://jmaynard.livejournal.com http://www.tronguy.net Fairmont, MN (FRM) (Yes, that's me!)

Good thing, too, since I'm planning a long trip home with it that'll take 20 hours in the air or so. Wasn't is just last month you were torn which model to get ?!? Time flies,.. now you will too. More like 3 months ago...and time has seemed to drag a bit, too. -- Jay Maynard, K5ZC http://www.conmicro.com http://jmaynard.livejournal.com http://www.tronguy.net Fairmont, MN (FRM) (Yes, that's me!)
