Welcome to the basement shack. This is my little place of heaven on earth.
						My home is located in the "Historic District" Section of Tupelo, MS. We have been in revitalization program for our neighborhood. And it is working!
				My rig shown here is a Icom IC746. In my opinion, it is one of the finest rigs available for the dollar. I have a 500hz CW crystal filter and a 1.9khz SSB crystal filter in the radio. That with DSP is unbeatable!
						Hygain CD44 Rotator and control. Does a good job on my system.
				Ah, yes. My Schurr Proffi II Iambic Key. What can I say, simply the best key made!
						For my local 2 meter nets, I use the Yaesu FT1500. I have 2 meters in my IC746, but sometimes when the DX Group is on 2 meters and chasing DX, it is hard to go back and forth, so I use this little rig. It does a great job.
			Here is my old Cushcraft ATB-34 beam. It has four elements and works very well on its 16' boom.
						That is about it for the shack. Hope you enjoyed the tour.
