Progress, albeit slow

I bought a small 6-meter sideband (well, SSB and CW) transceiver a couple years ago. A few weeks ago I finally uncovered it again and removed it from the box. Today I finally finished up the power cord (it's not a thing that just plugs into a wall socket). The radio powers up and seems to be doing what it should, though I don't have a 6-meter band antenna for it yet. One more thing to do. But for now at least the capacitors can stay formed.

Ahhh, someone who understands about 'lytics and their aversion to being powered down for too long!

[reminds himself that "transceiver" is indeed the right spelling, despite EVERYBODY ELSE on the internet spelling it "transciever"]

Does that ever happen to you? A misspelling becomes so prevalent that when you see the correct spelling, you have to remind yourself that it does not "look wrong"?

LJ's spell check is imperfect, but it does catch that.
