FR50B

FL50B

Hi, thanks for looking me up.

I operate mainly on cw, rtty,psk and sometimes on the other digi modes.

My station consists of :

Tranceivers:IC-706 and FT-2000

Antenna 1: MA5B mini beam. 2 metres above the roof.

Antenna 2: HF9V vertical, ground mounted.

Antenna 3: Magnetic loop (G0CWT)

Antenna 4: Dipole for 20metres.

PC: Dell 4400 and XP.

S/W: MixW (Reg) and now trying out HRD and a reg version of VQlog.

I have DXCC for cw which I received using 20 watts and a dipole and now working up to get rtty dxcc. My rig then were yaesu twins: FR50B and FL50B both still in service today. These are 40 years old. My other hobby is sailing. I have an Etap-22 (1982) which I bought in 2003.

My licence was issued in Dec 1978.

Am now retired from military service after almost 33 years. I worked as a radio technician in the Signal corps.
