cost, I am looking to build one myself. Any suggestions!

I use my slingshot launcher since I have cops living in my neighborhood.

If you are not in a hurry and don't mind a used Bencher BY-1, look around at

Hello Al,
I'm not sure from your post if you are looking for a receiver only or a qrp
transceiver.if receiver only, look at the eham reviews of the Degen 1102
and/or it's cousin the Kaito 1102 (same radio, different color/branding). My
review is on page two.follow this link :
Nopethe 1103 is a different radio.
