Chapter 7
25 April 2006
I have no idea why this stupid blogger won't let me put things in order by date. That's what I get for not inputting the info on the date desired, I guess.
Well, now I've kind of got everything set up, and you can read the continuing saga of Rebuilding N3OYA here instead of waiting for me to upload HTML.
So, on with the ramblings.
As you've probably read on the main site, the station is being rebuilt. I used to run a Yaesu FT-840, an MFJ-949 manual antenna tuner, and a ladderline-fed doublet. Pretty standard fare for the new young radio amateur, really.
A few years ago, shortly after Kass and I married, I sold off everything but my old 2-meter handheld FM transceiver. After all, we lived in an apartment. I lacked space to erect antennas, I couldn't get a decent ground (we were on the upper floors, and there was PVC between the station and ground in all the water pipes).
