<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been using the HPSDR transceiver setup (100W
out) since January 2009. See my QRZ page.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I find the wheel mouse & monitor so intuitive
and easy to use now, I feel no need for conventional controls
anymore.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In fact, when reverting to the FT990 or IC751A I
find that cumbersome!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, if you're used to a PC or similar, why not
forget all that old technology? Hooray for HPSDR!! 73, Hans
VK5YX.</FONT></DIV>
