Default What's your station?

I've always been interrested in what's inside other Amateur's shacks.
And I don't think we've ever done that here.

So whatchya got?

My Home station is an Icom IC-761. I'm controlling it with a PC
running Ham Radio Deluxe, and DM-780. I have two antennas, one is a
Butternut HF-6V, and the other is a ladder line fed dipole, 96 feet
total, and I'm tuning with a MFJ 993 auto tuner. Key is a Bencher
Paddle.

For VHF, I'm using a Kenwood 241 and pushing the signal out with a J-
pole.

In the Car, I'm running a Kenwood TS480SAT into a homebrew Bug catcher
(except for the coil) For VHF/UHF I use a Kenwood D-700 to a 5/8th
wave antenna. For aprs in the car, I use a laptop running AprsPoint
and MapPoint, and connect the GPS unit through the computer.
