I've only been a ham for the past few years, and only have my Technician License. With the new License restructuring, I'm going to be studying hard during the next month so I can upgrade to the General class.

Equipment:
Pyramid PS-21KX Regulated Power Supply
Kenwood TM-261A 2M Mobile
Homemade J-Pole, made from two Coat Hangers
(Coming Soon) Yaesu VX5R 440/2M/6M Tri-Band 5W HT

I'm scheduled to take a training class for Tornado and Severe Thunderstorm Spotting in the next two weeks. If this interests you, you can find more information about classes in the Chicagoland area here.

I just ordered my new HT, a Yaesu VX5R!

It's a Tri-Band ( 440, 2M, & 6M ) 5W handheld.
