Added a used Icom IC-7300 as my Field Day radio. Bought it from an Estate sale from a SK.

With retirement getting close, I decided to add a better HF rig to the shack with a Yeasu FTDX10 100 watt SDR Transceiver. This radio should serve me well for many years.  Now just add a few accessories to complete a nice DX station.

Replaced an Alinco DR-620 radio in my emergency kit with a Kenwood TM-D700 dual band with built-in TNC and APRS, now can do packet and Winlink

Added an Icom-IC821 all mode dual band radio to the shack

Replaced a county owned Alinco DR-235T 220MHz radio with one of my own for the Emergency Kit.

Decided to upgrade my packet system with a Kantronics KPC-3+ TNC.  This will allow the station to remain on the air and provide coverage for the west side of our county.
