    If you have $2 for a lightbulb, you can have an 80M rig: http://makezine.com/2008/12/26/das-d...o-transmitter/

    You'd better have a half way decent antenna hooked to that thing. 1.5 watts into a G5RV at 20 feet isn't going to be heard very well, if at all. Unless you only want to work someone across town.

    That's pretty cool. I haven't seen caps like those in the output for years. And, they are newer than the even older body-end-dot style I used to make shit when I was little.
