Thomas Does Radio or Something

After a very long break from successful HF operation (and the front end of a pandemic), I made it back on the radio with successful contacts. Outside is a G5RV Jr (borrowed from a fellow FLARC member) hung barely high enough in a tree. Inside is my kit with tuner: FT-818nd, Z-817, and a Bioenno 12V/4.5AH LiFePO. Logging is pen and a little notebook. FT-818 with Z-817 to its right, the microphone dangling down the front of the wooden drawers, and the logbook in the foreground on top of an unweathered bird box.

The cat was sleeping again on my dresser and I had just finished checking the tuning on my vernier mod. Here she is: The cat sleeps under the HF-319 with a vernier dial attached next to a Mean Well PSU and assorted cables.
