What’s In My Pack – Radio Chest Harness edition

Post author By admin
Post date April 5, 2021

I regularly utilize a Coaxsher chest pack for SAR, and sometimes for recreational use (front-country and backcountry skiing, mountaineering, peak-bagging, etc.) and I wanted to give a walk-through of what I carry in it. Perhaps you’ll find some of these ideas useful for your use, whatever that
may be.

@Ham Radio Crash Course recently did a video review (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EILFg0RPyOY) comparing the Coaxsher RCP-1 chest harness to a similar Abree model. I primarily use the slightly smaller Coaxsher RP-1 Scout (https://amzn.to/2Ojyukl) which is a bit smaller and more comfortable to wear. It still carries everything I need.

Packs:
Coaxsher RP-1 Scout: https://amzn.to/2Ojyukl
Coaxsher RCP-1 Pro: https://amzn.to/39FOUei
Similar Abbree chest harness: https://amzn.to/39FbC62

Other Gear:
Wouxun KG-UV9T Plus: https://amzn.to/3cKqYID
Smiley Antenna (great amateur radio antennas too!): https://www.smileyantenna.com/default.asp
Kenwood SMC-34 Speaker-Mic: https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/kwd-smc-34
Compass – Suunto MC-2: https://amzn.to/3duTPjb
Signal Mirror: https://amzn.to/2QTqK9t
Mini Duct Tape rolls: https://amzn.to/31GEDtQ
Trauma Shears (Madison Supply): https://amzn.to/3mpFgle
Medical Gloves: https://amzn.to/3uxyIUz
Headlamp – Zebralight: My favorite model – https://amzn.to/2PRxgxc. (Many others available with different battery types (AA, CR123, 18650), beam styles, colors, etc.)
Ivy-X Wipes: https://amzn.to/2PUx0gC
Rite in the Rain Notepad: https://amzn.to/3uirsLP

So let me know what else you would add to your chest pack that I might have missed.

Thanks for watching.

Post author By admin
Post date April 5, 2021

One of the best, and most affordable, antennas for GMRS base station operation is the Ed Fong J-pole. Based off of a design Dr. Fong created for the Ham Radio world with his DBJ-1 dual band J-pole, this antenna is measured and tuned for the GMRS band around 462-467MHz. Let’s take a look at the performance of this antenna today.
