About


Station:

     Icom IC-7300 for HF work and an Alinco DR-620 for VHF/UHF work, both are powered by a Generic LED 50 amp S-600-12v PSU and it has been flawless, contrary to what some would have you believe. No ripple, no problems and easily handles everything I connect to it so don't buy into the Sales Hype of the name brand PSU's...for less than $40, this is all you need. Also, I use no amplifiers at this time.

Antenna:

     For most of HF I use a homebrew 20m Doublet. For 10 thru 12 meters I use a homemade / refurbished Sirio Gain Master 5/8 vertical. If you need an ATU, I would also highly recommend MFJ, I use an MFJ 939-I, inexpensive and well built.

 

About the Site:

     Among the various other things I used to do with my life, I also used to design, build and maintain websites. Now though, it's just a hobby, but I still take it seriously. As such I try to keep up with the latest in W3 standards and web tech. This site is code intensive but because of the new tech available, should be resource light.
     The site incorporates technologies that, among other things, ensures user privacy and safety and ease of use. Most of the things going on with the site you, the user, will never see or be able to see. Which is the way it should be. You should be able to browse a website knowing that your computer, browser and identity is safe and you shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get it.
     If you are an aspiring webmaster and would like to know more about what you may see or find here, I will gladly share my knowledge and experience. Just shoot me an email from the Contact page!
     Enjoy the site!
