Hi... The picture was taken on a salt water Atlantic ocean fishing pier in Seabrook NH and the radio is a 2 watt CW Sierra (kit) rig that uses plug in modules for different bands. The antenna is a 20' fiberglass fishpole with a 17' (20m) vertical wire and a few radials. The tuner is a Emtech Z-match. QRP contacts come easy with this set-up at this location.

At one time here I was using a half watt 20m RockMite and got pretty excited when an Italian station answered my CQ and we had a great QSO. 

Sometimes I use a 5 watt Elecraft K1 kit radio. Great little rig.

I also enjoy finding and fixing up old radios and have a Heath AT-1 transmitter that I got working, and a Heath VF-1 VFO, and an AC-1 antenna coupler to go with it. I intend to use them with a Heath AR-3 receiver that is pretty weak just now. I think the tubes have to be checked.

Have a great summer and 73,  Jim - W1FMR
