HF-One: HF-One MKII: Serial Port
On a Chinese website, I found this picture of what I think is the HF-One MKII. Looks like a serial port on the back of it. Also, I keep seeing references to "kits." No response from the seller yet, so don't start counting chickens before they are hatched.

For local guys... it looks like they moved forward with the name change to go with the ownership change from a while back.
Coal Creek Armory is now Tactical Advantage Corp.
On a side note, I went to the range and shot my M&P9 (along my other pistols) a couple of weeks back. So it only took me about 10 months to get to the range after purchasing it. I shot it okay, but I was still better with my CZ 75 SP-01.

HF-One: HF-One MKII QRP HF Mobile
Thanks to Riku for sending me the link to the HF-One MKII 10 W HF radio. Details are limited, but here is what the listing says you get for your $300 (plus shipping):
- 100K--30MHz rx and tx in all band amateur radio band under 30MHz.
- output max:10W
- mode:ssb /CW
- with SDR
- AUTOKEY build in.
- audio REC build in.

The radio looks very familiar to me. And I'm going to be surprised if there is an app for that - controlling the radio. I've e-mailed the seller to see what else I can find out.

Here is where it gets interesting for me. These images looks like the SDR could be controlled by your iPhone or iPad.

Domestic Enemies: The Reconquista - Free Kindle Edition
Good read plus free = win! Apparently he was giving the whole series away free, but I missed the first one. That's okay for me as I already own it, but sorry for the late notice for those who like my recommendations in books.

Here I add a repeater into a memory channel. There really isn't much to it.
Updated: Just adding a note to thank BuyTwoWayRadios for loaning me this radio with absolutely no restrictions or demands on what I do with it or what I write about it. First class!

What's in a name?
I was able to get my gmail address very early on - it is just my lastname@gmail.com. People use my address to sign up for all sorts of things - car rentals, apartment repairs, pizza orders, dating sites, etc.
