Simple Yet Reliable Morse Code Radio – Penntek TR-35 Transceiver

Simple Yet Reliable Morse Code Radio - Penntek TR-35 Transceiver

I hiked to the top of Black Mountain near Wickenburg, Arizona. I brought along some borrowed gear to test on this Summits on the Air activation. This was my 3rd time using the Penntek TR-35 Transceiver and BeeTenna VHF Antenna. Both are excellent products that made this activation a success.

Summits on on Air combines hiking mountaintops with operating ham radios. I prefer to use Morse code when communicating with other stations, but you could use voice.

I will be participating in a LIVE buildathon where a group of us will build Rex Harper’s (W1REX) CP SIGHTer kit. The kit arrived, and as I was going through the parts list I realized I had to set up a test circuit to identify what color my LEDs emit.

Mountaintop Portable Ham Radio - Summits on the Air  #hamradio #sota #hiking #qrp

Summits on the Air Meet-Up. I drive to the outskirts of Flagstaff, Arizona where I met up with my friend, Herb N7HG. Herb lives in the Navajo Nation near the boarder with New Mexico, so it was half way for each of us. We hiked Merriam Mountain first and then hike Turkey Hills. Radio fun with great views.
