In years past I have had MFJ tuners but this one is a cadillac of tuners. Since I no longer live in an apartment Debbie and I have a small home on the southwest side of Lebanon IN. No longer work for the lumber center, I'm at US Cold Storage unloading trucks of food products via forklift. MUCH more money and benifits which brings me back to this MONSTER tuner, I'm looking to upgrade hf as well as vhf. currently Icom 718 hf. Icom V8000 vhf, Thinking about Icom 7000, Kenwood ts 2000, VHF however possibly a used Icom 910H (to access 2 meter sideband) or an old 2mtr, all mode with a new amp? I have noticed 2 mtr. activity in Chicago area (SSB).
Currently using a 40" tower W/ 11 element Cushcraft 2 meter beam at 51' (by the way Renae, a while back I brought up your local repeater) Plan to bump up the beam and add a 17b2 Cushcraft for ssb use, As for HF, using an inverted V Feeding it about 30 foot (sure miss my 55' trees at the old rental house!) 450 ohm ladderline to the shack (garage)
I guess my question is, does anyone own a 2000, 7000, or have any possible input for myself, my goal is to have a stand alone 2m ssb, an upgraded hf with this new tuner, and a stand alone 2m fm. any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
