*** Only  days left until Field Day ***

Welcome...

Welcome to my humble little web site. This is where I try to keep my friends (as limited in number as they are) up to date on what I'm up to and the progress of all of the projects that I'm working on.


I have a few projects under way right now.
  • I finished restoring / rebuilding an old HT-33B Hallicrafters linear amplifier (shown below).
  • I took down my TH-7 and replaced it with a new OptiBeam OB9-5.
  • I finished restoring a little SR34A Hallicrafters Continental table radio.
  • I'm installing a 160m receiving loop for the winter.  A modified version of the K9AY rx loop. Check it out by clicking on 'Projects' on the left.
  • I'm building a new shack over the garage - The Loft.  (see Photo Albums on the left).
  • I'm getting all set up on 160 meters.  A full size inverted V is already up but sadly summer is here.
  • I'm perpetually making changes to my logging program.

You can learn more about all of this project activity by clicking on the Projects tab.




Here's a recent shot of the operating position showing the Hallicrafters HT-33B amp on the far left.

This is a picture of my new OptiBeam OB9-5 being installed on top of my 80ft (25 m) Trylon tower.  There is also a 4 element six meter beam being mounted 10 ft above it at 90 ft (28 m).
