I don't have much in the way of UHF SSB\ngear, and I have noticed this is quite common, especially outside the\nmajor cities. Everyone has HF, and quite a lot of people have 2m\nSSB, but 70cm SSB starts to get scarce. Most of those who have it\nthese days only have it because they managed to afford one of the\nnewer all band, all mode rigs (FT-847, IC-706IIG, etc). I don't fall\ninto that category, I'm another of the group who have 2m all mode (2\nrigs even!), but nothing other than FM on any higher bands. :(\n\nIn the country, even UHF FM operators start to become thin on the\nground, let alone SSB.\n\n73 de VK3JED\nhttp://vkradio.com\n\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
