ARES AEC for Cheshire County, New Hampshire.

New QTH on 2.1 Acres in a town that has a tower restriction. Nothing more than 70 feet. I'm already at 1200 with most terrain at <500. I think I can live with it.

New station is finished. In the picture you'll see 2 complete operator positions.  The main is to the right of all the monitors and has an Icom 756 Pro III which is controlled with HRD and the computer just to the left of all the rigs. On top is a complete Heathkit HW-5400 station with the Power Supply/Speaker, Phone Patch, Microphone Equalizer and Audio Filter, Monitor Scope with Pan Adapter, Tuner and it's connected to the SB-1000 Linear.

Also in the shelf is an Icom 706 MkIIG that is controlled by HRD and the far left computer system. Each computer has a AEA DSP-2232/HK-232 TNC with full upgrades and a Rotator Controller with Idiom Press controller board. Each station, with the help of the *232s and HRD or Radio Operations Center, has full soundcard modes as well. There's also a APCO-25 capable Scanner and a Kenwood TM-V708.

Both computers are connected to the Internet via a router and firewall. Both are dual monitor system that make it real easy to control the rig on one screen and run digital modes on the other.

To the far left of the desk is a patch field. The upper field has a cable to each rig, the lower to each antenna. This allows an "Any-To-Any" connection capability. On top is a Kenwood TM-2570 connected to a AEA PK-232MBX running WinLink. That software is running on a headless server. Also running on the server is the Weather Station software.

Outside there's a Diamond X-50, 6M Ringo, 5 Band Hy-Gain Verticle and a 40M Cage Dipole. Yet to go up is a G5RV, Cuschcraft G6-144 and a Cubex KingBee 6 & 2 Meter Quad.
