All my gear and accessories are already in boxes. There are 2 boxes, accessories and books, that I have not checked in a while, and I might see if there is anything interesting in there that I might have forgotten about. #hamchallenge HC49 @hamchallenge

It is from back in the days when I was working in the satcom industry. Now it is on display on a shelf in the living room together with some old radio tubes.#HC49S #hamradio #amateurradio #amateurfunk @hamchallenge
