Equipment in use:

Yaesu VR-5000 monitor receiver

IC-746 for 2 meters

FT-2000D HF with Alpha 99 liner amplifier HF- 6 meters

FT-1000 Mark V w/ FTV-1000 for 6 meters

Alinco DR-MO3 for 29.6 FM

IC-2100H for 2 meter Packett

IC-2800H for 146 and 440 FM

AR-247 for 223 MHz FM

FT-6200 for 440 and 1270 FM

The photo above is the left side of the operating position. On the far left is the monitor for the yaesu Data management Unit (DMU) that is tied into the FT-2000D transceiver. The photo below shows the Yaesu equipment again along with a manual antenna tuner that currently is only used as an antenna switch. In the garage are two automatic antenna tuners connected to the long wire (rain gutter) antennas. The monitor just to the right of the Yaesu equipment is for the main station computer which is tied in to some of the radios for both control and digital modes. The monitor to the far right is for the Davis Weather Station sitting up on the MFJ antenna tuner. That monitor is sitting on the laptop the Davis system is ted into to and that is sitting on the Alpha 99 1500 watt linear amplifier. The linear amp is driven by the FT-2000D running in Class A mode at about 65 watts output. The FT-1000 Mark V runs Class AB at 200 watts out. There is also a VR-5000 receiver that I use for monitoring any number of frequencies.
