I just got "reinterested" in my ham ticket I got in 1974. Found a used 2980 for 100 bucks that works like a champ.

Hawkeye, you'll like that 2995. I've been running one several years with no problems at all. Maybe we can hook up on skip sometimes. I've talked to lots of stations in KY over the years.

The 2995 is an excellent radio.

There was a HUGE opening on 10m today. Europe was being worked from the U.S. like locals.
