The unit is a donated 1984 Winnebago motohome, with about 65,000 miles. Good strong motor, but had been in some rough places.

We had to build a new front bumper (with stubs welded on, for push-up poles for 40 and 80 meter dipoles.

The transmission was overhauled, two new air conditioners installed, outside painted and decals applied.

Installed a channel on the left side where several coax cables come out of interior, run to the back of the unit and then up a channel to roof, to mount antennas for 2-meter, Red Cross, etc. frequencies.

Installed plastic elbow close to coax channel for other coax to exit from operating position and go to push-up poles on front bumper.

Inside, all carpet removed and tile installed. Removed dining table and benches and installed operating desk with two positions. Closet shelving removed and a 2-meter repeater installed. At the present time on the operating position we have a duel-band Yeasu 8800 for 2-meters, and several handheld radios. HF is a 890 Yeasu and an Ameritron ALS-500M (500 watt solid state amplifier). We have the usual compliment of 12V power supplies to run the radios and also have an onboard generator and will also be transporting an extra 6KW generator.
