<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Tahoma,sans-serif>I was thinking about this some more
and it had occurred to me to buy a bunch of the FOBS, modify them with the two
leads and testing, then make them available for resale. The problem is I just
don't have time to do it and deal with shipping and payment etc. I certainly
would not be interested in making any money doing it.</FONT> <FONT
face=Tahoma,sans-serif>A qualified person could knock off 10-20 in an hour. If
the purchase cost was $2.50 then maybe $5 plus shipping would be a reasonable
price.</FONT><FONT face=Tahoma,sans-serif><BR><BR></FONT><FONT
face=Tahoma,sans-serif>Perhaps there is someone out there that could volunteer
to help with this on a case by case basis. The other thing you could do is make
it a club project. Certainly there is one person in a club that would have the
capability to do it.</FONT> <BR><BR><BR>For me, it is my eye site, isn't as good
as it use to be and everything has gotten way to small.<BR>
<DIV>Just finished up building a controller and had to use a 5x magnifier.
At least when you bread board stuff you can space things 2 microns further apart
than half an atom:)<BR>I think most hams are older now. I don't see the
younger crowd getting in to the hobby, sad to say. So size of stuff is
more important to me now. As I wont tackle a project that requires a lot
of smt components.<BR>Mike<BR><BR></DIV></DIV>
