I flew there because it wasn't just any old radio... it's an Elite. I don't know how many of these exist any more - I'm only aware of 2 after a considerable period of searching and researching. There is bound to be more, but I don't know where they are.

Here are the electrical pics of the Elite

And the thread where someone went, "WOOO, I can build one of those"

Sorry, I know thats a slight deviation from what I'm doing but its relevant, and very very cool Icon_smile
There are no personal problems that can't be overcome with the liberal application of high explosives
