I dusted off my old Philips portable chassis, bought a new LiPo battery, and paired it with an Anytone AT-6666 I had that was not being used. I needed to 3d print some side brackets to attache the radio to the chassis but they were easy enough to print up. I'm considering whether to add in my LDG Z11 tuner which will mean another set of 3D brackets. Not sure yet.
I recently finished some antenna repair work. One HF vertical was repaired and retuned to 10m and a 2m/70cm dual band yagi was also repaired and put into service. Temps were 33 degrees although it was nicer to make the repairs in that heat rather then the next day's forecast 36 degrees.
My new QSL cards from Gennady - UX5UO have arrived. First cab off the rank was a return QSL to Peter DE9JLX.
Well they've landed, have setup camp, and are transmitting.....but sadly I can't hear a thing :-(
I'll need to try harder. Their website is www.3y0j.no and you can find the dxpedition being spotted on dxsummit.fi
