2 Radio Equipment
2.1 Short Wave
There's some wisdom saying that you need a good receiver first of all. The next thing you should think about is a good antenna. I have been experimenting with several antenna types, mainly with the simpler versions of Inverted Vee and Quad Loop, but I have come to the insight that a good multiband vertical is a decent compromise between space consumption and multiband usability. That's why I have purchased a GAP TITAN. The next thing to consider is a sufficiently good transmitter. I solved the transmitter / receover question first by buying a sturdy Kenwood TS-520S valve TRX. A very good decision, I must say now 15 years later. Around 2001 I bought a second hand TS-930SAT, and this is now my core device. Maybe some time in the future I will also think about a Kenwood TL-922, but if, yes if I should have enough spare time, I might also decide to build a transistor PA on my own. Let's see.
Here's an overview of my nice little shortwave toys:
- Kenwood TS-930SAT
- Kenwood SM-220
- Kenwood SW-200 with Kenwood SWC-1 Coupler and Kenwood SWC-2 Coupler
- Kenwood LF-30A
- Kenwood TL-922 (not yet)
- MFJ-1026 Signal Enhancer
- Kenwood TS-520S - I gave it away as a gift to DARC U27 as a training device.
- Kenwood MC-85
- ETM-9C
- Junker Morse Key
2.2 VHF
- Kenwood TS-790A and the power supply Kenwood PS-30
- Standard C-408
- Diamond MX3000N Triplexer 2/70/23
- T7F (not operational)
2.3 Antennas
As a member of DARC e.V. I enjoy full insurance of all antennas:
As a vacational sailor and holder of two naval radio degrees (SRC-equivalent, LRC), I own and operate these devices:
