ft101e.3
How'd it go ?? After warming up the rig, I spun the dial a bit on what
has been a mostly dead band this summer. The first station I heard was a
little weak .. AA5QC .. no it's A35QC. I had no idea where that was, but
I gave him a call. It turned out to be JF1WQC vacationing in TONGA, my
first African contact and a 59 report at that! So here's an easy way to
add a WARC band and open new possibilities for DX adventure with your FT
101 series rig. Please let me know if you have any additional feedback
or comments on what has to be one of the easiest "mods" ever.

(1) This is another story .. note that it is a receive only band for
10 Mhz .. for now. See Page 70 of the Nov 83 issue of 73 Magazine if
you can't wait.
