Hi everyone. I am both a ham and a CB'er since the mid 1970's

Home:

Icom IC 746 (not pro) HF + 50mhz + VHF, 108~174mhz

This is a killer ham rig. Killer - killer - killer

Sounds great on CB AM too. Cut to half power to let modulation swing forward to 40 watts. Use the speech processor. Have Icom SM20 matching desk mic.

Antennas are a no-name 1/2 wave vertical for 10/11 meters and an 80 meter horizontal loop skywire wire antenna.

Mobile:

Icom IC 2100H 2 meter mobile 55 watts FM, 5/8 Mag Mount

Ranger RCI 2950 10/11 meter rig, 5 foot Firestick Helical Wound


Test:

Fluke 87 Series 3 Digital Volt-Ohm-Amp meter

MFJ 269 HF + VHF + UHF Antenna Analyzer. These incredible test meters are the best thing since sliced bread :lol: Once you use one, you'll wonder how you ever got along without one!
