70 cm operators seat…

The operator wears a headset with a TX/RX footswitch or may use a key.  There are three rotatable 70 cm antenna systems available. With a switchbox a single system is chosen or all three simultaniously. Since the three antenna systems are of a different configuration the best system can be chosen for the QSO. The systems are fed by 2 Cellflex coax cables (TX and RX separated). Pre-amps are mast-top mounted and switched.
