I’m completely stoked and will be updating this space with my adventures. Yay me!

So far, then, other than the license I have acquired a used and ever so slightly abused Kenwood TS 530-S. I haven’t yet put it on the air because I haven’t yet put together an antenna or found an antenna tuner. The $4 Special is a refreshing article after all the crazy/scary reading I’ve been doing lately about flying an antenna. I may be giving this a shot next weekend…especially if I can find a decent tuner to interface with my rig. I need more “just do it” and a lot less “ZOMG Horrible!” if I’m ever going to have the confidence to get on the air.
