[nrv-hams] Possible HF setup

[Joshua Ramsey]

Been dwelling on this for a long time, I think I know what to get, but just making sure the combination is good.

Power supply - I have a Pyramid 10a constant & 12a surge, thanks to Roger!

Transceiver - I want an Icon IC-718. Yes, this is ancient and basic, but that’s what I like. I don’t want fancy, no waterfall display, not super menu driven, almost everything is a front panel operation, and it’s simple. Since I’d operate at a max of 15w, but more than likely 10w, the power supply should more than suffice?

Antenna - this is the part I’m still a bit confused on. With my apt I was thinking of putting a wire antenna in an S shape on my ceiling using command strip hooks, since no outside options available. Is that possible? If so, how tight of an S can it be?

	Otherwise I was thinking of a small multi band vertical telescopic tapped, MFJ 1899t https://mfjenterprises.com/products/mfj-1899t <https://mfjenterprises.com/products/mfj-1899t>

Any problems with this combo?
