In this video there was a nice 6 meter opening. At the moment I only have 10 watts on 6m but a nice DIY LFA Yagi 5 elements. It’s all about your antenna!
In this video I take my first look of this radio as you follow along and we see some of the many features!

In this video I try to get away from the houses to see if I can find a quieter place to play radio.
In this video I talk about what I learned about this type of early warning system a lot of countries have and how it might sound on your Ham Radio.

In this video I look into trying to get the SWR better by installing a tiger tail to my IC705.
Don’t get me wrong the signal stick is totally usable but I thought the SWR would have been better.
SWR isn’t everything but I don’t want it so high that it hurts my radios, so I want to do some receive testing with these antennas and a couple others I have later.
In this video I review a nice reasonably priced battery operated ratchet from Gochifix.
