You made an INVESTMENT in the restoration of a highly desirable piece of electronic memorabilia, which only makes it more desirable to the amateur radio community, thus, furthering the interest in radio communications and making for a higher level of understanding and brotherhood amongst others of like interests not only locally, but globally, as well. No way in hell you'd catch me pissin away that kind of money on some glass shells somebody stuffed with some bits of metal and sucked the air out of. Ya crazy Bastid.Quote:

I have not tested a 701 yet because i don't have one in my possession. If you want to check out the webpage, it is at http://home.comcast.net/~tinkyr/radi...0Interface.htm There is also a link to my youtube site so you can see videos of the interface working. This has been a lot of work, and if you have interface questions about these radios, i will be happy to share what i have uncovered.

It is nice to see folks like who are willing to share their knowledge. I personally thank you for doing so.
Edit: OK, I just looked at your page and I have to say that I am impressed. Nice Job!
Indeed, nice work, Dave and welcome to the Island. It has become a tradition for newcomers to have a drink on my tab, which I never pay and which is roughly equal to the GNP of Bolivia.
Yes ...... I have to echo this as well ......Welcome to the Island Dave and indeed thank you very much for the link to your page with the Icom 701 mods!!Quote:
