Hello, all (or CQ, if you prefer); I'm still fairly inexperienced at the whole amateur radio thing - so far, I have my basic license and a VHF handheld. I'd like to start exploring digital modes, and am hoping that you might be able to suggest what sort of rig would work well for that.
I do have two limitations, though; I live in what's effectively a ground-floor apartment, and am thus limited in what sort of antenna I can put on my patio; and have a somewhat limited budget - call it US$500 at the outside, and preferably less, if possible. Given that, does it seem feasible to start getting involved in this aspect of ham, or should I focus my attention elsewhere?
