Sure, the rigs of today are a lot tougher to build yourself, but there are still an awful lot of things you can build. Search for the item "More kits than you can shake a soldering iron at" here on my blog. It lists many different sources for kits that you can build. Also, search for the item "Parts Places….for weird stuff." It lists quite a few sources for electronics parts of all kinds. 73, Dan I’m not sure what you mean, Ed.

I hate meetings only. If the club doesn't get together to build some project, rig etc, then set up a net to enjoy them, I just wither away. Sadly the ham radio books I read as a kid showed tube and transistor projects to build your own equipment, and I was lead down the wrong path. Ham radio isn't that way anymore. I found it on ARROW,
