Shack Showcase V44KAA
V44KAA This is my shack which includes my favourite kenwood ts-440s, Icom 745, tuners, Heathkit SB-110 for 6 metres, an old "match box", Kenwood ts-830s, and a few other rigs including a modified cb radio that can access cw in the lower portion of 10 metre band. Antennas are Cushcraft A4S, 11 el 2 metre yagi, 6 metre 5 el by Cushcraft, and others. Just enough to have fun.
