Well everyone about 2 weeks ago I moved into my own place.

I don't have much set up right now antenna wise just have a 2/440 stick on a tripod with 10 feet of mast.
I should be getting my 857D in sometime tomorrow.

From left to right is Yaesu FT 8800R, GE Orion VHF on top of the Orion is the PRO-197, Motorola Spectra.

Thanks! Only reason why I keep IBM PC around is because it has XP on it. In the photo its not on I'm running split screens on my laptop.

Just sitting here waiting on a local 2m net to start and thought I would commend you on your setup. I miss my XP machine but 7 isn't treating me bad. Let me know if you want a copy of my desk plans, lol.

Nice antenna, is it a Diamond or a Comet?

To be honest I do not know. I got it from my step father. It's a diamond knock. It is a decent antenna. SWR's flat on 2. They could be a little better on 70cm.
