The Monster made another purchase
Well Uncle Sam was easy on us this year so I ordered some more toys.
Kenwood TM-D710A for the Truck
Qty Model Unit-Price Extension Shipment-Info
1 ATAS-120A To much GND ATL
1 FT-857D To much UPS GND ATL
1 YSK-857 0.00 0.00 UPS GND ATL
So now I got
tm271, < not sure where this will go V-8000,< garage radio TS - 2000 < Shack and the above listed will go into the Truck. That should do it for radio's
271 may go into the boss car if she will let me.

I use an ATAS120 and an FT897D in the truck. I have a mount for the antenna on the trailer as well.

Uncle Sam was easy on us too but I used the money for different things. Honey dipper and leech bed.

I sure wish I had thought about the B'ham fest. I would have scheduled our last trip around it. We could have done an eyeball QSO Mike. I need to start thinking about those things.
You mentioned this "monster" buying up this gear Mike. Is this a monster inside of you ? You mean he's caused you to go out of control with these purchases ? Hi Hi... Send that Monster of this way when you're done with him, will you ?
You are going to love that TM-710A. My son has one of those or possibly an earlier version. Good little radidio. He keeps it in his work car and we communicate mostly via 2 meter simplex when he's on shift.

She's a smart lady. She knows therapy when she sees it.
