projects still on hold

It’s already Thursday and another weekend looms in front of me. I didn’t get a chance to warm up the soldering iron last weekend, as expected, but I guess that’s why ham radio is a hobby and not my profession or life’s work. Lately it just seems that the busy-ness of life has gotten the best of me.

I’ve gone back and forth (in my mind) between completing the Elecraft K2 or completing the PSK-20. I’d have to say that I’m about at the same point in both kits–a few more parts to stuff and  then an alignment stage. I suppose, time-wise, the PSK-20 kit is much closer to being complete; however, since I’m using a larger enclosure which is not pre-drilled, I will have to create a template and drill out the enclosure before calling that project done.

The feeling of satisfaction from completing a project still eludes me, but hopefully that will change and it will be a reality soon. Stay tuned!
