Design The Ultimate Amateur Radio
Have you ever wished your radio had some little extra feature
that just wasn't there?
Here's your chance to design the ultimate
radio, a radio with all the bells and whistles you've ever wanted.
You name
the the features you'd like on the ultimate radio and I'll list them on
this page.
It doesn't really matter if the technology exists for your
feature, if you want it, ask for it.
E-mail any radio suggestions via
the home page. I'll post appropriate responses.
