This fellow decided that if he had to get-out-of-Dodge, that he wanted at least one HF Morse transceiver with him. Here is a link to a light hearted, but well though-out HF radio package, tested in the field with the boys in uniform [not the Army, not DHS - a much more elite group: Boy Scouts of America]. He really did a fine job.

Mmmm, I get it. They rearranged the wires from the jack to the board. I have some scrap brass stock. I'm going to have to try that.
