Journal Timex's Journal: Now, with more HAM! 2

Journal by Timex

Take that however you wish.

I was given a Yaesu FT-450D as an early birthday/Christmas gift. (My dad and step mom can be cool that way, though I do admit that this was a bit much.)

That means I have to figure out a scheme for an antenna that works for my property, that I can get put into place with a minimum of hassle. I have just shy of a half acre, but it's the layout of the buldings, trees, and a buried (but filled-in) septic tank I have to deal with.

    Oh, and that's tallest in overall elevation, not elevation from ground (should be obvious).

      That would be the house.

      The only major problem there is I'm deathly afraid of heights. :( (Seriously, it's so bad that I start to have panic attacks in video games. You should watch me play Minecraft sometime. It's hysterical.)

      I'm looking at different ideas for doing a vertical that I might be able to do from the house, or maybe a horizontal from the house to a tree that's on the property.
