New Station is set up and running!

Set up the Yaesu FT-991A. Lots of new features and things to play with (break)...HI HI...
Antenna is still an End-fed Wire (31 feet) with a 40 foot counterpoise. tunes wonderfully with SWRs all below 1.7:1 on all bands 80-6M. The picture at the top is the current placement in the shack.
Hope to hear you all on the air soon...

New Station on the way

   I should be receiving my new Yaesu FT-991A, External Speaker and Programming software by this Friday. Hopefully, I will be working some PSK31 and JT65 by weeks end.
Will let you all know what I think of the rig and my setup.
