Tested Station 2 PC and monitors. The Apple monitor won’t work so we’ll sell it and fit the TV instead. I fitted the new 16 port switch and tested the Vertical Antenna base matting.
I was bored one day and decided to design a enclosure for my 4:1 matching unit. I tested it on a POTA but the band wasn’t very good that day but my reports back were really good, Make sure to like an subscribe, my plan is to torture test this setup on FT8 to see if there is too much heat build up in the enclosure, hopefully not. I took the antenna on a camping trip and the scenery is awesome!
I like to think I bug-out everyday I leave my home. I generally carry one to two radios with me on my person, a backpack or in my vehicle. The missions vary, go to work, go on a hike, take the kids to a lion dance performance, and so do the radios. Here are the radios I love the most and carry most often!

Richard had to remove his MFJ-1625 from his balcony but came up with a different idea. He modified the antenna so that the original coil sat at the top and placed a second coil at the base. He provides Dave with some data from the antenna and asks for his opinion on the setup.
