I really don't know what to get just yet. I was going to just copy you, and get a rig just like yours... cause you obviously know whats up.. but when I saw the price, I thought I would hold off some, and do some more research.

If you still have my number, give me a ring, and I'll be glad to give you a run down on why I spent what I did and how much I haven't even used the damn thing. If you need my number, I'll PM it to you. I don't know as much about "what's up" as some others here, but I'll be glad to show you what I don't know...

Upgraded to General this evening.
Still can't afford an HF rig.

Congratulations on the upgrade! HF is both useful and fun.
Good luck with the qso's.

Going to be doing some PSK soon. Got a FT-450, and a signalink interface. Also just got my ft-2900 in for my truck. Still need an HF antenna, and tuner.

Well look at you working the PSK! The digital modes are fun. I competed in the ARRL Rookie Roundup for RTTY a couple weeks ago and had a blast.
As you start to make more contacts you may even consider spicing up your page on www.qrz.com. It's always fun to look up people you make contact with.
Have fun!

UPS lost my FT2900.  
Says it was delivered.... no package. Ugh.

Still no 2900 2 meter rig. It's MIA with UPS.
Got my FT450 all set up. QSO'd with Cuba, Spain, Cali, and Venezuela yesterday. 100 Watts with my G5RV 6 foot off the ground at a 90 degree angle to itself. :) I'm happy.

Try 17 meters. It's been pretty open to Eastern Europe recently. Try between 2000-2300 Z (GMT)
