That's a great job, Tom. Don't apologize for picking up circuits here and there. Over the years much professional engineering and amateur homebrewing has been done exactly that way. Years ago the ARRL Handbook was designed for just such homebrewing, with circuit-by-circuit examples of each stage one might copy to use in their own designs. Both Hams and professional engineers used it as an important reference.
It's always a huge pleasure to run across a homebrew rig, whether it's someone running an old QRO vacuum tube creation or a fellow pounding away with his milliwatt solids state creation. For that reason I always tune up or down a couple of kHz after calling CQ in case there's an xtal-controlled reply nearby. To me, they're more exciting to work than rare DX.
