K6RF Home of the Porta Base for the FT-817

Thanks for stopping by. Please sign my guest book before
 you leave.
I have been involved in Amateur Radio since I was about 10 years old. My father was a ham and his operating sparked my interest at a very early age.
One day I was listening to his SX-28 receiver and he came in to the shack and a bit frustrated at my sitting in his chair said " Son, if you will get your license, I will get you a rig." That was 50 years ago.

K6RF.COM Home of the FT-817 Porta Base

I am an avid QRP fan and enjoy the challenge of operating low power. A number of years ago while on a RV outing I was looking for something to prop the front of the Yaesu FT-817 up with so I could see the small display easier. Anyone who owns one of these fine little rigs knows the problem. Later the next week I had the idea of the FT-817 Porta-Base.  See the related webpage for more on this very handy accessory.
