    Extra, huh ... That's pretty awesome! I may decide to tackle that one day. I've looked at material for the Extra and it's daunting for someone with no background in electronics. Best of luck ... Please let me know how you do when you take it!

    We should meet up and go fishing sometime ... I am in northwest Arkansas, but fish southwest Missouri and northeast Oklahoma more than I do Arkansas ... Table Rock Lake, Roaring River, Lake Taneycomo and the Elk River (which is used more for drinking and partying than fishing) ... I've fished...
