Job openings available for ham radio operators. Hiring solar flux repairmen, sunspot fabricators, and solar cycle planners with backgrounds in EPA regulations considered a plus. Must be able to work 24 hours a day 7 days a week due to the pressing need for numbers to improve.

A new meaning for operating mobile.

I'm slowly getting the van right for DXing. I've run a FT-450 but the IC-7000 seems to have better noise handling charicteristics. The satellite dish if I can't get a good use for it is going to be removed. The pneumatic mast reaches 45 feet and I plan to put my 5 band spiderbeam beam on top sometimes. I've used the ATAS-100 screwdriver but currently opting for more in the air with the Tarheel 200A-HP. The antenna is a legal limit version so when W7ARS finishes repairing a transistor ALS-500M amp it's going in. But while waiting I might put the FL-7000 in for field day while operating off a generator.

The life of HF is beautiful. The best of DX to all of you.
