KC2EDH here, I've been a ham since I got my Tech+ when I was 13. Since then I've upgraded to General but haven't been especially active lately. For now I have 2m\400 in my car and a Hallicrafters receiver at home, but thats about it. My father got me into radio, he has been licensed since he was in high school and is into DXing mostly on 20 and 15 meters. He has a great HF station set up, with a collection of Yaesu and some older Kenwood and Drake transcievers.
I've since moved out and gotten my own apartment, but not much room here to set up an HF antenna! Can pull in shortwave broadcast from around the world, but not so much amateur activity.
The hamfest scene has been reduced the last few years around here too, some area ones which were huge when I was little are now quite small. Must be a better market for boatanchors and transcievers online than at the flea markets.
