That is very cool. Are you a radio operator mate?

Yes I hold an amateur operator licence, but dont spend time on the service, its more for peace of mind contact if I ever need to get out of a jam. The HF service this radio works on has maybe a 3000klm range and is restricted in frequencies like the HAM frequencies.

Goona be a few ham frequencies on that Simmo trip I reckon.
Sorry to hear you couldn't make that trip Phil, a real bummer.

After speaking with George I won't be doing it. As it stands, my fuel economy doesn't change if Im towing or not. George pointed this out, it seems my rev range must be right in the sweet spot.
I was concerned if I did the mod. I would be too low in the RPM, albeit only 200rpm lower. But I still can do it later if I wish.
