I operate 160 meters to 450 MHz in SSB, CW and FM modes but can be found on the 20 meter phone most nights between 14.160-14.220. HF station is a Kenwood TS-570 S/G, Heil, Alpha 86 and 4510 feeding a four element SteppIR at 105 feet via 7/8 heliax. Base elevation is 7000 feet which makes for interesting DX. Dogs name is Bandit and barks when the band is open.
