I really enjoyed the chat with Josh and Carey, too.  Saturday I was sure I
was in the wrong place ... Dayton isn't supposed to be sunny for Hamvention.

I felt like you guys missed the best part, though.  I've been going down for
the QRP'ers meeting on Thursday, they call it FDIM.  For me, Thursday was
the highlight of the weekend, although looking at some of the amazing
homebrew gear on Saturday night was no slouch, either.

Oh yeah, Josh gave me a great idea for a project, too.  And if you're
reading this thread, Leon, it involves a dsPIC.  Now I just gotta find some
time to do it!
