Welcome to VK5ME

 

 

This is my little powerhouse, the ICOM IC738.

Used to be a Kenwood man but this little baby is real sweet.  Only drawback is now provision for SSB filter although there are some good CW filters.

The built-in ATU works a treat, tunes all bands except low end of 80m..

 

QTH

Situated 15Kms North East of Adelaide, South Australia.  After 5 year absence from the bands I have now returned !

Working Conditions

  • Icom IC738, 100W
  • Dipole for 20m band at 10ft
  • Looking forward to getting Tri-band beam

Digital

  • I hope to have RTTY and looking forward to trying PSK, the new mode that purports to beat RTTY.

 

Favourite TX

  • 10m FM and digital modes.  I also enjoy DX contesting.
