APRS
I had a box that had been unopen sense we moved from the DC area. In it I found a MFJ 1270B TNC. Fired up a Terminal program and it still works, so I got the Packet Cable for my FT3000M and a Serial to USB cable for the Computer. I now have the FT3000M on APRS. It is strictly on the Radio. No Intern...

Radio Programming
I now have the Programming Software and Cables for the Woxun Handheld and the Kenwood DM710A. So if anyone needs them programmed, let me know. I also have the setup for the Yaesu FT3000M too.

Re: Heathkit SB-102 Repair
I used to have one back in the 1980's.
Some things about the tube rigs are:
1. If you keep the rig turn on all the time, it did not drift that much.
2. You did not need an external tuner. Just tune it for max output.
3. They had decent audio
4. Will survive a nuke holocaust.
