Quiet on the air

I don't post on the blog as much as I want to.  I haven't been on the air for quite some time due to physical issues around the house, such as nowhere to put up an antenna safely and the now-unstable housing situation I find myself in due to no fault of my own.  So there's no ham radio activity on my end right now, but hopefully soon, I'll be able to get into a place where I can put up my shack and get back on the air again.

I did build another 20-meter dipole yesterday.  It's not fully complete yet but I hope to have it fixed soon.  I still can't find my original 20-meter dipole I built but it will show up eventually.  I might get around to building another G5RV Junior and carry that around with me.

So for now, not much hamming from me but I'm hoping to be back on the air soon!

Almost back on the air!

So I purchased a used OEM mic for my IC-706MKII and my dad tested it for me, confirming that the little 706 is working fine.  A good friend ...
