Thank you for the responses.



Maybe this is all a sign of the times and we are becoming a society
where people no longer develop the skills and self confidence to build
or repair thing.


Or maybe, things have gotten SO expensive and folks have changed hobbies
to something cheaper?

This is definitely true in the world of Amateur Radio
where homebuilt system were common and now seldom exist.


Not in my house! In the past 5 years or so, I've built transverters
for 222, 902, 1296 and 10 GHz for myself. Built transverters for 222,
902, 1296, 2304, and 3456 for others to help them get on the upper
bands. Build my own antennas as well. Last commercial rig I bought was
back in about 2003 or 2004.
