Welcome to my page.

My name is Guillaume and i enjoy ham radio since 1994. SSB, DIGITAL & CW DX is my main interesset.

My Simple station is a TEN TEC ORION, Ameritron AL-1200 QSK (custom mod) & SM-220 to monitor the signal quality.

Below is the antenna at VA2NA home

Cuscraft D40 Rotary Dipole for 40 meters at 70 feet.
Hy-Gain Explorer 14 for 10-15-20 meters at 60 feet.
Inverted Vee for 160 at 55 feet.
20-40-80 fan dipole between tree at 35 feet.
80 meter vertical delta loop feeded at 1/4 on side for best low angle radiation.

2013 project: Rohn 120 feet self support tower for 40 sq ft array. Came from VE2RA

Antenna that i project to put in this tower:

- Homebrew 4 elements OWA 20 meters 35 foot boom.

-15 meter 5 elements on 26 foot boom

- XM-240 + 1 more element on 40 foot boom

- 2 elements phased aray for 80 meters on 1/8 lamba boomswitchableno rotary at 110 foot

- some kind of 160 meters verticl

A new remote amplifier is on the way, featuring no time limit, -45 dB imd3, perfect for long contest week-end. Will be one of the cleanest Amp around.

My special 60 meter call is VX9GIS
