This is the original Schak, with old rig´s and PC´s from last century ...I start my activity as CT1FAK in 1993 with this equipment.
You can see a old JRC and a Sommerkamp
This is my actual rigs, a FT-1000, a IC-706 MKII and a Yaesu FT-736R.
A have also a old FT-23 R and some VHF and UHF commercial equipment on packet, a Winradio Scanner and more old and classical rigs.
The antenna setup
For 144 Mhz i use 4 DL6WU homemade yagis with 9 mts long, and on 432 Mhz i use 2 DL6WU yagis with 7 mts long. I have now 4 DL6WU yagis with 8 mts long to put in the meedle of the 144 Mhz array, and, in workbench 16 long yagis to put on the end of my farm.
Sattelite antennas and other HF stuff in recent past ...
And the actual photos of my station :
The equipment during AO-10 QSO´s ...
