Nice one Denise. Takes me back to my schoolboy days netting in with seperate Tx/RX. I used a two tube Tx (6CH6 multiplier and 807 PA) with separate 7MHz VFO power output about 20watts 10-40m and a Realistic DX160 receiver.

Very nice, I just passed my Technician Exam yesterday! Now I'm studying for my General Exam and also trying to learn CW. Even though it's not required anymore, I want to learn it because it's something radio operators should know IMO. Great video BTW.

I'm a 3rd generation Ironworker, spent nearly my whole career working on base. My grandfather worked on the Mackinac Bridge. Ps. It looks like you have a real nice family there, they all seem to play a part in your videos. Keep it up
