Project - Portable Station Box

I was thinking a lot to buy a box for my portable station. I saw several youtube videos with great ideas.

The aim of having this box is to 
  1. Protect my equipment during transportation 
  2. Secure my equipment 
I went with my good friend Ahmed (7Z1OO) to one of the biggest hardware stores in Saudi Arabia to see the availability of these boxes or cases.

My portable station contains:
  1. Kenwood TS-590SG 
  2. Sharman Power supply switch mode 30 amp





The next step is to have a portable bag for my Hexbeam or vertical antenna. This bag should be light weight, strong in protection, easy to carry.

After that we share the idea with most active members in JT65A Digital Mode On HF Facebook group. 

I discussed with MI6JVC about our club name, and we agreed to choose JTDMC - JT Digital Mode Club.

Honestly, I did not believe all supports from the group members.

After that, email sent to Clublog attached the founders list requesting to create and list JTDMC - JT Digital Mode Club in their Club Leagues.
