<div>So I've got everything in hand up and running with the Mercury on order.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>What else do I need to make this whole setup work?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1) Do I need some sort of Transmit / Receive switch once I add Mercury?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2) Does Alex implement a Transmit / Receive Switch? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>3) What about an HF amplifier? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Fara HF amplifier looks interesting, seems like up to date parts list and circuit boards are available. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>M0KHZ recommends a 20W FET PA designed by Steve – G6ALU -- not sure if up to date information is available to build one of these without having to delve into the design?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any other recommendations? Doesn't have to be a kit, looking for commercially availalble solutions as well.</div>
