Sky Command II TS200 and the TH-D72
Just a quick note on K7PWTs Sky Command II implementation. It took some reading and following the instructions step by step but I was able to get it up and working. One thing that I found it that I need to get a resonant antenna for all the bands I want to work via Sky Command because you cannot invoke the antenna tuner from what I can find. But if you want to work a HF net or have a scheduled QSO it works great. More to come as I figure this thing out. Let me know if you have a questions or if you have any tips for me.

Mobile HF FT-857 High Sierra HS-1800DX
This weekend I installed my FT-857 and a High Sierra HS-1800DX Screwdriver HF antenna in my 2008 Jeep Wrangler. Took me most of the weekend to complete but all came out well in the end. I purchased the the antenna used from a fellow .52 ham and it looks brand new. I will post more on this to come one I get the hang of how to use it and all but my first contact was to Ohio on 10 meters with a 5-7 sig report from my driveway .... Needless to say I am a happy camper.
