   In a message on 12-03-18 Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   GE Ed,   
      
    HG> When I had it going the local club decided to close down the packet   
    HG> radio system. Consequently I added a microphone and speaker amplifiers   
    HG> and had a 70cm transceiver.   
      
   EV> I was wondering if the circuit used IC's or XSISTORS only or did it   
   EV> have Vacuum Tubes in it?   
      
   It's completely solid state with, IIRC, one IC programmed for channels   
   and frequencies and another IC plus transistors. On the additional board   
   for mic/AF amplifier two more IC's.   
      
   EV> Is the Schematic for it on some Web Site?   
      
   It certainly is but right off hand I don't recall if the source was the   
   german CQ DL or UKW Berichte (english VHF Communications).   
      
   I usually prefer the german version if the publisher is in Germany aince   
   I get the contents faster than awaiting the translated english version.   
      
   EV> I ain't built any circuits for ages but I would like to see the   
   EV> Schematic for the Rig You built for packet radio, and later added   
   EV> Audio to it (for A.M. I suppose?).   
      
   I certainly do have the magazine that contained the description if I   
   only knew which one it was. I'll send you a note when/if I stumble on it
