Should I Create Another Facebook Page? Email Lists, My Other YouTube Channels and Updates to All

Should I Create Another Facebook Page?  Email Lists, My Other YouTube Channels and Updates to All

Join us tonight for the livestream to talk about a multitude of things – should I create another Facebook page for Ham Radio 2.0? As most of you know, my account was hacked earlier this year, then it was banned. After several hundred emails to Facebook, no reply was ever received. So I am thinking about creating a new Page for this channel.

Also, if you haven’t already, sign-up for my email list. The list it around 19,300 subscribers right now, and when it reaches 20,000, I will be giving away another HF radio. Sign-up here – https://hamradio2.com/email-signup

We will talk tonight about 2 of my other YouTube channels also. Come join us!

Temu EXPOSED! A Threat to American Security?

Temu EXPOSED! A Threat to American Security?

I made a couple of videos about products that Temu sent me and they want you to install their app to get a $100 coupon that they offered to me, to give to you. But in my videos I said I would install the app onto a tablet or device that isn’t my main EDC device, and maybe doesn’t have any personal data on it. Well, according to this article and group, that is a good idea.

Activating POTA in Montana with JUST a Buddistick Pro!

Activating POTA in Montana with JUST a Buddistick Pro!

During our Yellowstone trip, we stopped off and activated Parks in several States, including Montana. The Buddistick Pro worked great for all of these activations because it sets up quickly, it doesn’t require any stakes in the ground or wires in trees, and when it is packed up, it is very small and portable.

This video is NOT sponsored – but you can find the Buddistock Pro at this link – https://www.buddipole.com/buddistick.html
