Laffey Radio II Views

This is Radio II which is across the passageway from Radio Central.
The HAM operators will be using it as a ham radio station. The call
sign is NT4HI which is close to our own call sign which was NTHI.
They cleaned it up and painted it.  It really looks great.


Radio II as it now appears:


View into Radio II from passageway door.  Note how well the URC-32
cleaned up, which means I was able to mount all of the covers but one
and get the rust off.  The WRT-2 isn't too shabby either.




This is the view from inside showing the amateur gear on top of the WRT-2
antenna coupler. With the help of your next work party we hope to have a
permanent metal table from which to operate a permanently installed ham radio.

NT4HI for first operation on 16 April 2008



I estimate that members of the Charleston Amateur Radio Society
contributed over 100 hours for the whole project begun in February.

Thanks for your support as President of the Laffey Association.
