ZS6DX/V51VE

Here are some general photos of past events etc. by ZS6DX. I try to update this as often as possible.



ZS6DX HAMNET multi operator entry 2002 (operator Katti - ZS6KVR).
We won this one !
 
Trophies won for best SSB and best CW operator of the year.
 
 
Contesting by candle light after a power failure.




Some of the equipment in the old main shack, see next few pictures for new shack.
 
The main operating position in the shack, still waiting for racks !
I am also still waiting for some equipment to return from service like the FT-1000MP.
 
Some of the older equipment and the battery backup system,
4 x 120ah deep cycle batteries and 220v, 1.8kw inverter.
 
Yes, I know it is a bit of a mess but as soon as the custom made racks/desk arrive it will look better !
 



3DA0/ZS6DX somewhere in Swaziland handing out a few new ones to the deserving.



Getting ready for a early start during a rally giving radio support as radio marshal, this is LOTS of fun !



Somewhere in the African bush stopping to work some DX. (Using an Icom IC-706MKII and a Hustler antenna)



VHF/UHF contest setup at the Pretoria Amateur Radio Club for a local contest.
I chose this spot because the refreshments were close at hand :-) !



Antenna setup for the above station, not an ideal location but still fun and we managed to show a few new hams
and prospective hams what contesting is all about.
