Well, I guess it's not the kill but the thrill of the chase...

OR

as we say in swedish: "Det är inte målet utan resan dit..." - "It's
not the destination but the trip to it..."


BR  - keep the solder flowing and the valves glowing

Quoting Dimitrios Tsifakis <[email protected]>:

Do you confirm my observation? : Very often is see this dependency: The more
effort and time someone spends to build a PA or similar circuit to make it
look as perfect as possible, the less time he will spend to use it later,
i.e. the time the PA is on the air!

Well, yes. There are builders and there are users I think. If you
enjoy building, you spend most of your time doing that.If you enjoy
operating, you do only the minimum necessary building. The valve gear
mostly satisfies the artistic creation desires, at least in my case. I
have done about half a dozen QSOs with my 7 MHz 807 set and the funny
thing is I still build CW transmitters when I am not really all that
competent in Morse code... :-) Explain that if you can!
