The Station at Home.
Transceivers are TS-520S
HF Transceiver from KENWOOD, it work in the bands of 160,
80, 40, 20,
15, and 10 meters on
CW and SSB, 100 watt, using a dynamic desk microphone
from
KENWOOD model MC-50 and
a K-4 hand CW key made in China.
Antennas for HF bands are a 1/4 wavelength Ground-Plane with 5 radials for 28 Mhz,
dipoles in inverted V form for
21 Mhz and 14 Mhz.
And for 144 Mhz band am using
a 1/4 wavelength Ground-Plane with 4 radials and a
standard 1/2 over 1/4 collinear
array without radials.
All antennas are using 50 ohms coaxial cable as Transmission line.
The Ground system is a
pipe (7 foot lengthy and 3/4 inch of diameter) into the earth, applying
common salt to the soil around
the pipe to reducing the soil electrical resistance.
