   As I said before, HF is down the road, but I am actively saving so I will   
   get there.  When I do I'll be putting up a dipole and will probably focus   
   on 20m.  While I will be doing voice I don't think I'll be a contester.   
   I'm also interested in digital modes as I have been receiving them with an   
   Icom R71 for a few years now.  Mostly PSK31 and some RTTY.  Probably get a   
   Funcube SDR too.   
      
   On 2m I have the new Yaesu FT1DR.  I chose that for its built in GPS and    
   APRS.  Been playing around with that.   
      
   In the meantime I belong to a local club and will get on HF there when I can.
