Mine was providing the RX IF for a 3cms station today on the IARU UHF/SHF
contest. That's much more fun than monitoring the local repeater.

Hmm, working 1056km on 23cms from GM to F4 with only 80W and a single 55ele
beam was anything but easy today! OK I know what you mean, a sniff of RF
into any old bit of wire will gather contacts from a 1500km radius on 40m.
(HUD's best DX is GM to LY with 300mW on 40m using MFSK16 with a 40m dipole
1m AGL. 100% copy each way.)
