I poised a question on our local net tonight that no one had a ready answer for. Is there any way to convert a couple of old cell phones (miniature transceivers) into something useful for ham operation? Maybe for intercoms in the house or even across the street. Perhaps even for low power CW operation by converting the frequency? Any ideas? -Jim, KDØQBH |

Jim, I would have to agree with the last post. Cell phones don't lend themselves to modifications for ham use because of their miniaturization and specific circuitry. I have used them to practice my soldering techniques for surface mount components. Bill |
