Re: CB'ing and Ham radio in the 21st Century

Nice variety there Kymmy

I haven't really had a chance to do any radio recently (apart from monitoring the Russian naval aviation nets )

Current list of radios here is:

Yaesu FT1000MP Mark V with Collins mechanical filter and high stability oscillator boards
Yaesu FT857D All mode/band mobile
Yaesu FT847 All mode/band
Yaesu VX-3 VHF Handheld
Yaesu VX-8E VHF Handheld
Kenwood TS480HX HF + 6M quasi mobile
Kenwood TM-G707E VHF Mobile

Usually barefoot power only here unless running meteor scatter or the odd pile-up break:

Linear Amp Discovery 2 - 1.5KW* at full drive for 2M
Acom 1000 - 1KW* on full drive for HF and 6M

*never run at max of course
