I'm certainly interested in homebrew gear, I'm a member of G-QRP and enjoy
reading about the various designs people come up with.  I would like to build a
receiver (possibly 40m CW).  I suspect I'd be best off buying a kit, since I
don't have access to any test gear at present (other than a cheap multimeter).

Regards,
 - Andy.
