I was sent the TH-H8 for a review . This radio has a real bad noise while transmitting on some frequencies. Stand by for a full review soon!

In this video I attempt to make a 181 mile SSB contact on the 2 meter band. I try to check into the 2m Bozo Net on 146.240.
Let me know if a Moxon kit is something your interested in. It would include all parts and instructions.

In this video I test the Yaesu FT-991A with the Ares 9:1 EFRW antenna to see if the internal tuner can tune all the bands 160m-6m. Now I know this antenna won’t be real efficient on 160 and 80 but you may still be able to make some contacts. Go ahead and try it doesn’t hurt. In the second part of the video I add wire to the 41 to take it to 71′, be sure to watch to see what that does!

In this video I take a Coffee and Ham Radios Ares antenna and do a couple custom fixes to make the antenna a little easier to deploy for a Ham radio operator that is blind. The things I do could be for any ham or antenna!
