Mike, I have never rushed working on radios. It's a hobby ... something to be done for recreational purpose, and in my case, education on the fly! I may spend hours on a project one week, then walk away for a month. If you throw a timeline on it, it becomes work. My intent is to one day understand the "why it works" theories as well as most of you all do. To that end I will always pester everyone with loads of questions! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
