My Favorite Ham Radio Gadgets of 2025

In this laid-back Saturday morning video, I run-down of the gear that saw real use during my 2025 ham radio adventures, from backyard operating to countless Parks on the Air activations. I cover standout items like Meshtastic nodes (C-Studio T1000 and Spec5 Delta), the game-changing ArmorLock cage for my FTDX10, the incredibly versatile Hamtop SkyHook system, the Bluetooth-programmable Valet VRN76 handheld with APRS, free logging apps (Polo & Hamrs), the Sofirn Nova flashlight, and the RigExpert AA-33 Zoom antenna analyzer. If you’re looking for proven, field-tested recommendations (or last-minute holiday gift ideas for the ham in your life), these are the gadgets I reached for again and again this year!
