New kit!!

as mentioned yesterday I got a new antenna for the Baofeng handy.

Its a Diamond RH771, 40cm long and cost the princely sum of £3.99 inc post from ebay seller

Took ages to get here, but if you can live with the wait, its a good antenna.here it is attached to the baofeng.

Next is a desk mic.  not a power mic, but a mic from a pager.  Its an Eagle, P658T PROP80.  it came with a 1/4" jack plug on it, so I had to fit a 4 pin mic plug and decipher the wiring diagram that I found on line.  it works well and I have had 3 QSOs with it and good reports on audio.
