Wish my cheep smartass phone had better camera,there is wires,ladder line,dipoles,beams and a nice big building to the right to escape from house for peace n quiet
 
Someday i got to stop.its on my bucket list.wife n i counted lot more than camera shows.i counted 10,she said 11 total.
 
10-11 antennas. That guy is serious. I want an antenna farm myself one day, with really tall towers.
yes cant see in picture but several in trees n wires with insulators,ladder lines galore.but as i said in 79 i was haulin fuel up that road to springfield,mo 6 to 7 loads a day.he came a long way to have so many antennas
 
Looks like 2 element 40-meter beam w/UHF stuff on the tower by House.
Then maybe a HyGain TH7DXX 20/15/10 meter beam(4 elements each band)(might have 2 "L" 40m kit also) and 7 Element wide space above that for 6 meters...by looking at pics...
Yep, nice set-up...bet I have worked him, most likely on several bands.:whistle:

That ain’t ol, “got my red panties on”, I hope.


Such a sight is seriously impressive.
The planning alone, if nothing else.

You sorta wanta knock on the front door just to shake his hand. Hurry back to the truck and lay that hand on the transceiver. Slowly power it up.

Wait as it settles before kicking the air start on the 12V-71
