    Own too many radios to even remember, mostly Motorola commercial gear (Jedi-series HTs and Spectra mobiles) that I get for free when agencies turn it in to my friend's shop. Main amateur rigs are an Alinco DX70 and Yaesu FT8900.

    I started a portable tower system this week. This is for a wind turbine & of course my antennas.

    Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to
    beat you to death with it because it is empty.

    The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.

    Cool Edisto I could see a hybrid car towing this behind them with a wind turbine to get some extra juice

    Can't wait to see the finished product

    I have been a ham so long I have forgot. Not as active as I use to be. But setup for 80-440. Use to enjoy working 6 meters with a IC-746pro and a PW-1 with stacked M2 loops.

    ZA (among others) have suggestions HERE .
    I take my tech test in a few weeks. Getting my radios set up now.

    Get the current ARRL License Manual to study, and you can take practice tests at http://www.qrz.com/xtest2.html.
