SolderSmoke Shack South -- with Mythbuster II and AN762 .1 kW Linear

This is the current operating table at HI7/N2CQR.   

The box up on top is my Mythbuster II -- like the original Mythbuster, but without the circuitry for 75 meters. Below it is the 15-10 I rig with dial from Pericles HI8P (SK). 

The shiny box with the heatsink is my new AN762 .1 kW linear from CCI. Most of this amp was assembled in Virginia, but I did the relay work and "socketry" here in the DR.  It seems to work fine.  I use it with the little box to its right which houses the Low pass filter board from a Ten-Tec Delta (Pete advised me to buy this back in October 2023). 

Out on the terrace in the upper right you can see the bottom of the 16 foot fishing pole that is holding up my 20-15 1/4 wave groundplane antenna.  I have already crossed the pond many times with this combination.

  3. I would recommend adding a leg under the left front corner of the table to support the weight of that microphone...

  4. Very sharp, clean looking station. Reminiscent of the W7ZOI station in SSD transplanted to the Caribbean. Such a QTH!
