 You may know that I actually lived in Lynchburg for a time and several of the Jokers and Wednesday night net guys knew me as a kid. My stepmom, Erline actually worked for Lawrence. Small world indeed. As you can see in the photo above, My basic equipment starts with a Icom IC-756 Pro III and Ameritron AL-800H amp, left to me by my Dad. These are backed up with an ATH-30 Tuner, MFJ-259B antenna analyzer and MFJ-1026 noise canceling signal enhancer. RV's are huge noise generators, between DC florescent lights, inverter chargers and wall warts of various sorts, so noise reduction is a plus. All of this is topped off with a G5RV antenna which I usually string up in the trees available around my campsite using a slingshot to get the lift lines up. My wonderful wife, Georgie, and I now travel the United States and Canada, performing various volunteer assignments at lakes, dams, rivers, nature preserves and campgrounds. I have tried staying at our home in SC but find I get bored and need to hit the road again. |
