OH8GEJ HAM Shack - Equipment, Radios, Antenna and more.

I also hold the callsigns: KB9YXM, HB9TMJ, DG2JW as well as OH8GEJ. The station is almost completely run from Alternative energy. That is to say that I am running the Ham shack, wx station, APRS DIGI & station computer almost entirely from alternative energy. Solar panels & home brew wind generator charge 1 deep cycle battery. I am able to run most summer days without the need of electricity from the grid.

Yaesu VX5R

The Yaesu VX-5R is a triple band (6M, 2M & 440 MHz) HT with extensive receive coverage, and leading-edge features. It receives the AM and FM broadcast bands, shortwave (AM) to 16 MHz, VHF and UHF TV audio, VHF Air and public service frequencies. The specific ranges covered are: 0.5-16, 47-729 and 800-999 (less cellular). The die-cast aluminum housing, augmented by an extensive gasketing system sets a new standard for water resistance among amateur HTs. This robust construction has earned it a MIL-STD 810 rating.
The supplied FNB-58LI 7.2 V 1100 mAh Lithium-ion battery provides 5 watts out on 6M and 2M and 4.5 watts on 440 MHz. Features include: 16 digit 9 memory DTMF autodialer, CTCSS/DCS, 220 memories, aluminum die-cast case and 8 character alphanumeric display. Posted by Picasa
