Spotlight	CQ DX from W2IRT

My home QTH is in New Jersey, about 50km West of New York City. I run an FT-1000 Mark V, Icom IC-7000 and an AL-1200 amp on all bands from 10-160. On my 70' crank-up tower I have a Force-12 C31XR for 10, 15 & 20, a little WARC-band yagi, and wires for 40, 80 and 160m. See ya in the pileups!

IC738 Help... I recently powered up my Icom 738 after a few years of storage.When in SSB mode. I can't tune in the signal to the point where I can clearly hear the transmission. Any Ideas ??? I'd hate so spend a fortune for repair if I don't need to. Thanks. JBrysonjr@comcast.net

Shack Showcase	KB2DHG Apartment Ham shack

Here is a picture of my ham station I have set up in my apartment. I am using a G5RV Jr. Which is on the roof of the apartment but only 20 foot up on a mast and a long wire. I work 80,40,20,15 & 10 meters with the aid of an antenna tuner. Apartment operating is a challenge but Old hams never give up!
