After going to the REAL ham shack to test the Baofeng Minis I reached out to the TinySA designer and I learned a TON! Thanks to @SOTA-plus and Doug for the amazing experience.

Jonathan, KM4CFT, is best known for his CFT1 Transceiver, but he’s also come up with a few other great products at HamGadgets.com. The KM4CFT Iambic Paddle Kit is one of them — an easy-to-build, lightweight (just 1.3 oz) 3D-printed paddle that’s a blast to use.
It uses magnetic tension, has rubber strips on the bottom for grip, and works great either handheld or on a metal surface for POTA or SOTA. It’s available in eleven lever colors, and you can add an optional leg plate and strap for even more portability.

Like the idea of nationwide or even global radio communication but hated the idea that your POC radio becomes a brick if your out of cell range? Poclink added a UHF radio to their new Poclink Pod-1 Ultra. I beat it up to see if it measures up to severe use.

What is SWR in Ham Radio?
@fm71450 is wondering how to make a good connection to his antenna farm without too much loss. What is a good system for this? Will coax or ladder line be better?

In this video I make a version of M0PZT’s Cobra antenna that is a bit more portable. This is a 80m Linear-Loaded Doublet that is only 40′ long.
I need to do more testing and get the antenna higher to see if it improves the efficiency. Below I will list parts needed for the build.
