With this kind of response from such willing members, go for a couple of diodes!

LPF is the best! :cool:

I'll send another if we go for a second diode. Test 203 to death? I say yes!

:undecided: uhh.. i didn't see a checkbox where it calculates or adds on the fee..
ehh.. whatever.. i overpaid him last thursday anyway for occasions like these. :p

and IgorT.. have fun! also.. i think when the 8x is all ready.. and i'm able to afford it, i'll have you build and put it together for me :bowdown:

i could build it myself.. but i think you have a tad more experience.. and i'm not gonna toy too much with such a pricy diode... i'll burn and kill cheaper PHRs in the meantime. :p

I have 10 years of electronics experience....


Look HERE for some of the devices my R&D company makes.. Botom of linked post...

IgorT! i don't mind.. but if you want, i'll hold out on the GGW deal you mentioned earlier.
and put that money towards my 8x LAZOR build i'll buy from ya in the future.. unless you really have some to just "toss away" :p

but yea.. we surely need to make sure you get yourself a diode for yourself once you're done with all this.

i say we keep donating! where's everyone else?? hewwwwwoo!

3.5 hours and seven people :drool:

Did I mention that I LOVE this group of people.

Peace,
dave

I love it here too! :yh:


Since we already got the target amount, and i haven't even gone to bed jet, i say we go for another 8x diode, the $170 203BO!


Give it a day, and we have the target amount for both! :angel:


I'm getting two 203's for Glenn and myself...

$170 more would get us a third diode, again lowest efficiency would get MURDERED!!!!!

If we reach the target amount for a second 8x why not give it a go?

If not, Dave can refund everyone who donates from this point onwards....

A very quick search of the net found that the lowest price I can get a Pioneer BDR-203 (that is available now), is ~$230.
Where are you getting BDR-203's for $170?

We can get another LG BH08LS20 for another $175 We can ship them together so we only have to cover the PayPal Fees (~$5.00) If y'all want to go for it, I have a second folder set up for PayPal notices. (It actually already has $20 in it so only $160 more . . . .)

Let me know so I can re-edit the OP.

Peace,
dave

This is a first LOL We are paying big cash to kill diodes LMAO.
Gotta love it!

IgorT, myself, Hemlock Mike, Kenom, GooeyGus, and a few others have been doing this all along. This is just the first time, that I know of, that the membership has helped like this.

We used to sell a laser or two to help defray the costs, but lately new "dealers" have undercut us to the point where we cannot afford to keep it up.

Oh well -- Markets change -- Dinosaurs go extinct

Peace,
dave
