There are new HF Radio Bag Inserts for the Explorer Backpacks from Gigaparts. Now you can choose from a laptop sleeve, or from bags for the Icom IC-7300, Yaesu FT-891, Yaes FT-991a or Yaesu FT-817/818. Coming soon there will be a new IC-705 bag which is larger than the original, so you will be able to add a Peovi (or similar) cage to the 705 and have it fit into the new bag.

I caught up with Patrick from Geochron at the Hamcation 2024 Hamfest and he took us through some new features that were recently added to the Geochron device. This device is great for tracking weather, satellites, the ISS and many other things. Let’s take a look!
