Radio Shack

 
     
  The current DF3CB Radio Station - built in 1995 - is located in Munich, Germany, in a semi-industrial area. The station consists of a radio room and three towers. The towers are spread in a triangle over an area of some 10,000 square meters - each some 70m apart. More than one kilometer of coax and control cables is used to connect the antennas to the shack.  
  Despite the city location I am rather lucky with the QRM situation. There is hardly any noise from 80m to 6m however on 160m there is a continuous S7 noise level on 160. There is unfortunately no room for beverage antennas.  
  The DF3CB station is optimized for SO2R (Single Op Two Radio) and Multi Single/Multi Two Operation. We use a YAESU FT-1000MP, a YAESU FT-2000 and two automatic amplifiers. Both stations can be run independently from each other sharing a common set of antennas.
