My location is in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, UK, with the grid locator being IO93FR. This places me in CQ Zone 14, UKEICC region WF, ITU Zone 27, and within the IARU Region 1.
Regarding my station setup, I use various equipment:
For HF transmissions, I operate an Icom IC-7300. In my car, I have a Yaesu Ft-7800 and a Retevis RT73 DMR installed. For D-Star, I use an Icom ID51, the 50th anniversary edition HT. Additionally, I have an Anytone 878UVII Plus and a Yaesu FT1XD HT for DMR. My setup also includes an Anytone AT-D 578UV Plus. Externally, I've installed a Diamond X50 Collinear antenna on the roof for 2m/70cm bands. Finally, across my garden and rooftop, I have a homebrew 148Ft End-fed Long-wire antenna, which includes a 9:1 balun, arranged in a square formation.
