Re: [HCDX] What rigs and antenna does everyone use?

[T&M Ritola <ritola@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have AOR AR7030+ with Murata CFJ455K4 instead of K5.
My antennas are Wellbrook K9AY and 2 "Beverages" (unterminated) of 400 
metres beamed to North America and Far East (and unterminated as they are, 
the opposite, too!).
In addition to that I have a listening cottage at 1,5 hours' drive with 4 
long-wires of 200-400 metres.

73, Mauno
400 km north-east of Helsinki
