Click for more detail... Here I am around 1967 as WA4TUF. In 1970, after college, I went QRT until 1999. That's a long time to miss! Having fun catching up. Rigs today are an Elecraft K3 (#101) with an Ameritron AL572B. The antennas are a Mosley Tigeray mounted on the chimney (3 el on 20/15/10 and rotatable dipole on 17/12) and an 80 meter OCF Windom up in the trees. I run mobile with a Yaesu FT-100D and ATAS120 antenna. There's a Yaesu MarkV Field at the office with a G5RV. You might also hear me from Myrtle Beach, SC. on my Elecraft K1 or K3. The antenna will be whatever I can hang off the condo balcony - usually an Outbacker or a PAR end-fed half wave. I am an active FISTS member and I operate mostly CW including CW mobile. I also operate PSK from my stationary exercise bike. There's a microphone around here somewhere but I am not sure how to use it. I don't now why I took this picture in 1967 with a microphone. I never used one then either. That DX-60 only had about 10 watts output on AM and my voice was a dead give away that I was "just a kid." On CW I was anyone's equal. I QSL 100% any way you want with no SASE expected. Last modified: Sat Jul 11 10:41:03 2009 Does this page contain inappropriate content? If so, Report this page... |
