Glenn, I can't encourage you enough to proceed with the AF/IF project.

Lately my focus has been on the AF side and I drifted from the Corsair
II to the Omni 6.  The AF strips in both radios are throw-away and I'm
in the midst of replacing everything in the Omni 6 except for the dsp
sidetone (everything else in the dsp + notch + af output goes).  It is
just amazing when you unlock the potential in these radios that was
hidden/mangled by bad AF circuitry.
