This is obviously me in my shack. The computer system is now installed to my left. My regular equipment: For HF: Kenwood TS-850 and a modified Heathkit SB-230.

For two meters I use the Yaesu FT-1500M.

The antennasystem: OptiBeam OB10-3W: Three monobanders on one boom at about 13 meters.

This great antenna is for 20, 17 and 15 meters. Above the OptiBeam is a simple three element monoband Yagi for ten meters. And on top there is a Comet which I only use for two meters FM.

All this on a crank-up and tilt-over tower and a thickwall aluminum mast.

This tower has been up since december 13 2008. Some more pictures will be added some day.

For 40 meters I have a G5RV junior with the apex at some 11 meters above ground. Momentarily it's in an inverted-V configuration and is a work in progress. Nevertheless it has given me fairly good results on 40 meters.

Experimenting is such a great thing to do.....
