I have a modest station located in Northampton County, PA. The station breakdown is a Icom IC-761, Nye-Viking MB-VA tuner, TL-922A amplifier and a IC-740 as a backup radio. I also have a FT-817 with the LDG Z817 tuner for portable/qrp work. The antenna for HF is a160 meter Carolina Windom at 30 feet. For VHF I have a IC-271A with a 100 watt brick and a 3 element beam for SSB/CW. For local UHF & VHF fm there is a Kenwood TM-731A going to a home brew 2m/440 mhz Super J-pole mounted on the roof of the house. I use my nickname of Rick on the air. I QSL via eqsl.cc and Lotw. I also paper qsl as well for those who would like my card. The picture is from Field Day 2008 when I was operating CW with the KC2UFO group in a used parts junkyard in NJ on top of Montana Mountain at about 1300 feet elevation inside a junked out school bus. I look a little rough as I had been up about 30 hours at that point in 90 degree heat !!
