I am taking the opportunity while the weather is bad to work inside the shack.
New cables have been routed into the equipment room and a 19″ equipment rack installed for the Harris amplifiers.
Two cables were installed for future use with the ends coming out of the ground in strategic places.
Hopefully I will not need to route more cables into the shack.
Operating position “C” is now fully operational – I tested the Harris RT1446/RF-350K with the 1KW amplifier this afternoon and there seem to be no problems.
It only remains to connect and test operating position “D” and then the station will be fully functional.
I would be interested in comments on the quality of my signals.
I have now prepared the antenna wires out of #6 CopperWeld steel wire with 60lbs insulators.
I must wait for better weather to install the antenna on the King.
I have finished the task of guying the King and the Rooks.
A formidable amount of hardware was consumed by the project.
Soon I will be able to start construction of the antenna itself.
