Peak wind at Holly Farm was 62MPH. That’s a lot for UK but we fixed it all up. Callum.

Does You Company Make a Christmas Video? Let us see it!
Full test over 5-miles with the Retevis MB62 *and* supplied MagMount vehicle antenna with their MB62 kit. This is great fun! These are the links Retevis sent to me:

Up to 90 mph winds have been measured recently in UK. Holly Farm (antennas and remote site) currently hitting 60mph gusts right now. DX Commander Antennas appear to be holding up!
We are expecting 60mph winds in the middle of England so let’s have a Check-In before all our antennas are destroyed! LOL
I can’t believe this actually works under water! The Spec says IP67 so actually it’s good for 1m depth for 30-mins! But anyway, I found it funny..!

Retivis sent me this link for the GPS version of the radio:

We like this dual set. You don’t need a licence, anyone can use them and it has just about all the basic functionality you need. No knobs, just a few buttons and it’s not expensive. Charges via USB C.

We invite ALL Ham Radio companies to make a Christmas Video! This is our attempt. Please smile and laugh at us! Merry Christmas from Wendy, Loki, Gina and Callum.
This is for 40m RX and TX gain in 4-directions. It’s switchable. Needs a LOT of coax for the phasing lines and the main feed and a 3-wire control line too. In this video, we unpack the box, understand how it works – and sort all the cabling to the field.
