A little about W1VL (Andy) ....

Present station consists of a Kenwood TS140S for 160-10 meters, Kenwood TM231A for 2 meters, and an ADI AT600 handi-talkie for 2 and 440, as well as the usual myriad of tuners, filters, power supplies ,etc.  Antennas consist of a ladder line fed dipole, R7 vertical, Ringo for 2, and Dual band MFJ mobile.  I now have a real tuner and SWR bridge (hi hi!)

Not a big DX chaser, but you'll find me in the ARRL Sweepstakes each November!
