Here's the station
from which emanate those NO4Y signals
An Overview...
Here's the whole station so you gat an idea of its layout. Herman--how do you keep it so neat?
A close-up of the operating position...

You can see my main computer monitor. On the desk behind the monitor is the PC used for
Echolink and the NO4Y weather station. My main computer is not visible.
AEA Pakratt 232 multimode digital interface (HF/VHF packet, Amtor, Pactor, RTTY modes)
Above the 232 is a Diamond SX-400 UHF/VHF watt meter
Middle Shelf Left to right
