Putting the rig to- gether on top of windy Aalleberg I missed the coax between the TRX and PA... So no PA and no preamp...Later however I found a small piece of an unknown kind of a cable in the car - and succeeded in "taping" the to units together with 30 W at the end of the test. Condx bad, but worked the station I heard./Lennart 73 Lennart Lonnqvist, SM6CLU
