Spotlight KB2DHG Apartment Station
KB2DHG Apartment Station I was forced to go from a house to an apartment. I thought it was going to be the end of my beloved hobby... with HOA's and restrictions with antennas... I was able to get a G5RV dipole up on the roof and being that I am on the top floor running coax was not a problem... So here is a picture of my shack sporting a Kenwood TS-430S and my Drake 4B line twins. I have a Icom 228H 2 meter rig and an old EICO 723 60 watt CW transmitter... I am not gang busters as I was with my tower and beam but with hopes of the new cycle coming of age, I expect to get back into DXing soon. I operate mostly CW but get on SSB abd AM from time to time... Never give up where there is a will there is always a way!
