This is one of the most famous shops in the UK amateur radio world. They
used to advertise regularly in the amateur radio magazines. I was so
pleased to see it still there and in business in Lincoln.

10m Phaser kit

A very kind amateur in Scotland is building this for me as my fine motor
skills are not up to it now. He is making a very good job of it. Hopefully
it will be used on 10m FT8. This frees up the main rig. It is a phasing SSB transceiver designed by Dave Benson K1SWL and sold by Midnight Design
Solutions in the USA.
