MB7UB back on air

Thanks to a very generous off from M3ZBE. MB7UB is back on and working well. This now gives me some time to get the original repaired. Thanks again Neil for the loan.

MB7UB Off Air

had a trip yesterday to tweak the settings and restore the TRACE path. However during the visit the rig died. I now have two dead TM-D700 at home. I am trying to find a cheap repair and possibly a source of replacement gear.
