Base is an icom ic7000 with ldg tuner, singalink, and a g5rv wire...

CONGRATULATIONS!

Another 2015 General Upgrade, I think you are number 3 so far.

You are well on your way but what are you buying yourself for the upgrade present?

^^^^^ planes are even more expensive than radios. That one looks more expensive than my 3 combined.

Congrats!
Also great selection on HF set.

7000 is a fun radio.

Expense = # Engines squared.

So I decided to get into something less expensive . . . guns and radios.

Good luck! If you are still looking for challenges after that, go for the GROL! That is where I stand now; Extra since 2000 and GROL w/ RADAR since 11/2014.

Sky King was my nickname in high school because I was the only one with a pilot's license. The pic is of my 1965 Cessna 320 Sky Knight . . . essentially a turbo 310. The real Sky King's first plane was a Cessna T-50 Bobcat and then he switched to the 310. Not that I watched the show much.

Back on topic, sort of. The 320 had a King HF rig in it that I never used.
