ok, perfection isn't of this world, but let's just try to play with some imagination, start with an existing or a non existing rig, and add all the features you feel important for a POTA/SOTA activator or for a hunter, come on, let's raise some holidays dust
P.S.
keep real, don't ask for dilythium batteries or the like
I think the ideal radio is one that has everything included in the case - radio, ATU and power. My KX1 fits that description, albeit only on 3 bands and only in CW.
Having said that, I find enjoyment in the less than ideal - what can I do with things I built myself, or the most minimal setup possible. Santa was kind enough to bring me a QMX high band kit that should bring a lot of fun this coming year!
