Cable Prep

The LMR-400, N-connectors, tooling to install them, and a lightning
arrestor showed up on Friday (DX Engineering) and now everything is on hand
to install the Diamond X6000A tri-band vertical. The hardest part will
either be installing the N-connectors (Ive never done that) or else routing
the cable through the attic.










With that complete, Ill finally be able to put the IC-9700 on the air and
begin exploring the local VHF/UHF/1.2 landscape. Next will come the
installation of a rotor and directional antennas for 6, 2, 440, and 1.2
new slices of radio spectrum (for me) to be explored.
