 Hi.....this is the home shack of John, WB7ACV
located in Reno, NV. USA. The latest equipment consists of a Yaesu FT-2000
with the Yaesu SP-2000 Speaker and using the Yaesu MD-200 Desk microphone. I
am also using the Yaesu DMU-2000 Unit with an Acer Monitor for the bandscope
features. The amplifier is the Yaesu Quadra feeding the antenna system which includes a Alpha-Delta DXA 160-80-40
Twin Sloper, Hustler 6-BTV Trap Vertical ground mounted w/radials and a
Cushcraft A4S Triband Beam at 45 feet. The beam is mounted on a Universal
freestanding tower with guys due to the high winds in this area at times.
I was first licensed in the late 60's and
quickly upgraded to General and then Advanced a couple of months later.
Always wanted to get the "Extra" but family and job got in the way
for many years and I have just started considering it again that I am retired and now have the time.
I always reply to QSL's either direct, through
the ARRL DX QSL Bureau System or thru Lotw and eQSL.
73's, John - WB7ACV
