Yea, fairly simple task to start off with, just set it up for 52.525 simplex. it came in the mail today, but I can only see the outside of it, I have no key. Some rust on outside, but in all looks good. Man it's bigger then I thought it would be, and heavier. Technology sure has improved over the years. Look at my 706 and all the bands it can do with 100w. hi hi. I yearn for the satisfaction of taking this MII and making it work on 6M though. Off to a locksmith tomorrow to see if I can get a BF10A key made. Control set should be on the way soon. All I need now is a manual. I appreciate all the help and I'm sure I will need more before its over.
