Starting to get the shack how I want it here at the new house, and I am loving the new desk!
Kenwood TS-590S. I found this jewel on Craigslist in early 2021 and got it for a great price. It was like brand new, not a scratch!
Yaesu FT-991A. Used mostly for Winlink with Vara HF, Vara FM, and VHF Packet Winlink. Also used for local UHF and VHF comms and occasionally Wires-X.
TYT MD-9600. A very nice little UHF/VHF/DMR 50 watt rig for right at $200.
Power is supplied by an Astron RS-35M linear power supply, backed up with a West Mountain Radio Epic PWRgate, and a 32Ah LiFePO4 battery. The muffin fan keeps the power supply running cool.
CW key. Begali Simplex Mono in a palladium finish. This is such a dream to operate!
Hustler 5BTV. Trap vertical for 80-40-20-15-10 meters. I added DIY elements for 12 and 17 meters.
40m/80m NVIS. My simple solution for 40m and 80m NVIS. Used for regional comms on Winlink and local nets. I might add 60m elements below the existing ones to make it a 3 band fan dipole.
40m EFHW. The venerable 40m end fed half wave. My workhorse HF antenna here at the shack.
UHF/VHF Antennas. Left is a Comet GP-3 dual band vertical. Right is a DIY 2m 4 element Yagi.
