Here's some pictures of my amateur radio station.

The SteppIR, the business end of the station

On the bottom, closest to the tower is a 3 element SteppIR beam. The SteppIR covers all bands from 20 meters through 6 meters. At the top of the mast is a 13 element KLM beam for 2 meters. Not visible in this picture is a trap dipole for 30/40/80 meters.

A shot of the operating position. An Icom 756Pro-II handles the HF through 6 responsibilities. Also on the desk in a Yaesu FT-817, Peet Bros. WX station and a beautiful Schurr paddle. Above the Icom is a KAM (for Packet Cluster), Yaesu FT-2600 for packet and local repeaters, the rotor controller, the SteppIR controller and a Heath remote antenna switch. The shack PC runs WinXP. Logging programs used are DXbase for general logging and either MMlog or Writelog for contesting.
