7. Our equipment were stolen… In october 1999. our equipment were stolen, HF Yaesu FT 101ZD, HF YAESU FT DX400, VHF YAESU FT221RD and HF receiver BC320 (WW II). After several months we found FT101ZD and BC receiver under local bridge in water. Unfortunately, BC was total damaged but we tried to repaire FT 101ZD because our HF activity was on that transceiver. Milorad YU1GU made everything what he know, and now FT101ZD work on 80 and 40m. Very soon in the future we will be active again in all bands, so…see you on the air…
