New HF Station

Here is some pics of the new HF rig I just picked up. I got it from a guy who was the original owner and never sent a voice transmission through it( He used it for CW only). It has the external VFO and Speaker. I also picked up a HEIL Goldline mike at the HAMfest in Tennesee.

Thank You, I'm very proud of this one. I have my eye on a 901 Antenna tuner and a Station Monitor, I hope I get them.
 
I love the tone of the mike, it has great midrange and I can adjust the band width with the narrow/wide switch on it. Unfortunately, until Dec.3 I won't be able to transmit over the air. The guy I bought it from, bought it new and only used it for CW. He hooked up the mike and allowed me to moniter the sound through a Dummy load. The radio does full power on all bands like new, and the condition is out of the box. I got real lucky. (It was worth the 6 hour drive to pick it up.) It was pretty exciting to her the radio, seeing that no vioce transmission has ever been broadcast over it.
 
Believe it of not, it is a very user friendly radio to operate. When I went to pick up the radio, the guy was nice enough to put me up for the night and school me on how to load and tune the radio and how to set the processor. I can't wait until December to pass the exam and get on the air. Scott

Can't wait till Dec. 3. And by the way King Cobra. I would love tto help you out and have that radio in your house, unfortunately I'm not that nice. He He
