I only have a technician license at the moment but wanted to try some longer range stuff so I got an HF radio. I’m extremely new to the hobby so I have little idea what I’m doing lol.

    Nice! I love my g90, solid little radio. Can tune a wet noodle lol. I take it with me when I work POTA.

    20w is plenty and that was my main radio for a while.

    Now I’ve got a 7300 to play with. I’m lucky enough to have a couple linear amps to play with, a 600-800w sb200 and a 1200-1400w sb220. But I don’t have any room to set them up right now, living in an apartment.

    I did get permission to put a few antennas up in the tree near my window, but I can only run 100w, and the local noise is fairly high. Still fun though.
