HAM Gear that will be used & getting ready for going active

Here's some snapshot of the gear that I will use.


1st the rig;

And the rig with straight-key

For antennae I'm using either of these 2 End Feeds Antennae

note: I will do a initial review on my 1st take on these END-FEED-ANT


For power we will use a 240volt AC-DC power supply that's snatch from an old Juniper firewall that I had.

note:  Due to this country being EU standard, I swapped all of my single 120volt power-supplies to dual 120/240 volts

You will need a US powercord adapter or  locate a EU powercord. The receptacle on the wall is either of the 2 circle-plug or 3 plug fashion

To make things easier on obtaining the license. I laminated my Extra Class FCC license sheet at Fedex-Kinkos

This should make things look more professional and probably less questions from  the local folks at the communication ministry

As a matter of fact, I got lamination crazy,  and did a few other misc cards.
