I’m Bored! Let’s Go On A Ham Radio Adventure!

I'm Bored! Let's Go On A Ham Radio Adventure!

I was bored out of my mind on Friday. The urge to play radio was growing stronger by the minute. I’ve got new gear I want to play with and an antenna that I made months ago (if not longer) that I’ve never used. But I didn’t want to go to any of the parks around me. I’ve activated them all already. I wanted something new. So I set out on a quest for a new park. Far from home. One I’d never even heard of before. It was beautiful. In this video I take you along my journey, show you the park, my setup, my antenna, everything but the contacts. Analytics show that once I get on the air in a POTA video, most people tune out. Myself included. What is interesting to me is the journey, the setup, the gear, location, and the results. Hopefully it is to you too. Gone are the days where watching someone make POTA contacts is considered exciting (unless it’s live, perhaps). Not saying I’ll never show making contacts in a video again, but perhaps this format will prove more engaging. It’s certainly more fun for me to make. Let me know what you think.

Why Was This AnyTone AT-588MAX Returned?

Why Was This AnyTone AT-588MAX Returned?

I bought another Amazon-return AnyTone AT-588MAX expecting the usual mystery, but this one turned out to be refreshingly boring: it powered up, tested fine, and is now ready for resale. In this video I put the radio through the usual checks, verify basic operation, and see whether there’s any obvious reason it should have been returned in the first place.

👉 Get This Radio From My For Sale Page: https://temporarilyoffline.com/blogs/tos-blog/revolving-list-of-for-sale-items

The AnyTone AT-588MAX is a single-band mobile ham radio platform available in different VHF/UHF configurations depending on version. The VHF model is designed around the 2-meter band and includes features such as high-power mobile operation, memory channels, CTCSS/DCS signaling, DTMF functions, scanning, programmable controls, and a full-function microphone. If you’re looking for a simple high-power analog mobile radio without the complexity of a dual-band or digital rig, this is the kind of radio the AT-588MAX is aimed at.
