2024 Bushwhacker Plus 17MB. It’s mostly good. Except for the few Major Flaws! I love my teardrop trailer. Had a lot of fun with it this year. But there are some things we often take for granted that Caitlin @HamRadioK8FAE and I were missing. Like putting your clothes on while standing. Or just standing in general. Or having a shower and a toilet. Or a bed actually made for two people. A table. A place to sit without having to convert your bed from a bed to a couch. A place to cook that isn’t outside (especially when the bugs start to come out at night). The list goes on and on. We love camping. But it’s time for an upgrade. We watched so many videos about campers, different brands, different layouts, size, weight storage, amenities, etc. etc. etc. When we saw this one we absolutely fell in love with the layout. It has so many of the things we want while still being light enough for my car to tow it. And the price was very appealing. It’s new old stock so they wanted to get rid of it and I wanted to let them. It’s not without its problems. All campers suck (except for the really expensive, custom ones, but they prob suck too) and are poorly made. I knew that getting into this and had very low expectations about what I was getting into and you’ll see some of the issues. They can all be fixed. I expected it. But overall I’m actually very happy with this camper and can’t wait to get it out in the wild.

Boondock Edge and Boondock Tango can turn almost any radio audio source into an offline AI transcription system. Connect an HT, HF radio, scanner, receiver, or other audio source, and the system can listen, transcribe, archive, and organize radio traffic locally without relying on an internet connection. That makes it useful for ham radio, scanner monitoring, emergency communications, field operations, and anyone who wants searchable radio logs without sending everything to the cloud.

👉 A1S Board: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/8f1vbr
In this video I walk through the Boondock setup, including the Tango audio interface, the Edge dashboard, and local transcription using AI models running on your own hardware. I also show how the system handles real radio traffic and how the workflow changes when you are completely off-grid. If your local hardware is not powerful enough for the transcription quality or speed you want, Boondock also offers a cloud option through portal.boondockecho.com. Super affordable and Flexible Rates
This setup is interesting because it is not tied to one specific radio. If you can get audio out of it, you can feed it into the system. Whether you are monitoring amateur radio, public safety, airband, GMRS, HF, or scanner traffic, Boondock Edge gives you a way to turn live radio audio into searchable text, recordings, alerts, and a persistent archive.
Steps To Install:
1. Plug in Tango or Echo to Your Machine via USB
2. Install OS
3. Connect to Network (if not done already)
4. Download Install Script: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Boondock-Echo/Boondock-Edge-Dashboard/main/install.sh
5. Run Installer: sudo bash install.sh, choose defaults… or not. Add in username/password
6. Visit website: https://hostname:4000
7. login with your user/password you setup before
8. Click the Gear in the top toolbar
9. Click System and setup Wifi, enter the IP of the device you’re on – remember this?
10. Recorders – refresh, if it doesn’t show up, disco/reco
11. Click Auto-Configure (possible firmware update)
12. Feed an audio source (your HT, your HF, your PC, broadcastify, your scanner, etc)
13. visit boondock.local
14. click recorder
15. set your audio level at just above the noise floor (the gray), click save settings
16. make some noise and watch the magic happen

@Yelyab1 wonders if a dummy entropy could possibly equal an antenna entropy. What does Dave think? Are the two similar in any way?

What radio should you buy first?
Scott from Ham Radio for Non-Techies (HR4NT) explains why you shouldn’t settle for cheap gear when starting out in amateur radio. His golden rule: Buy once, cry once.
From budgeting and choosing your first handheld radio to understanding what to do right after getting licensed, Scott breaks it all down in his book What to Do After You Get Your Amateur Radio License.
