    My base station

    Here is my base station, its on top of a hill out in the bush overlooking the sea so there is heeps of skip and no interference from electrical things, I have an old bus seat I sit in.



    Early Cobra 2000 GTL, converted to 240 volt and 26 mhz, this has more punch that every other radio I have ever owned.



    Home made 5/8 wave Station master, its tide up with rope as it gets super windy here, you can see a slight bend in the radiator this has been fixed but happened in a storm before i added the ropes, I plan to build a 3 element Yagi beam next, I have a Dipole it just needs a reflector and a detector added.



    1978 American Electronics radio, clarafire unlocked for 10kc shift, 26 and 27 mhz my favorite radio. I need to get a power supply as I only have a car battery to power this.
