I Built a Complete Ham Radio Go-Bag From My Own Black Friday Deals
This video is the ultimate test: not just talking about Black Friday ham radio deals, but actually using them to build a complete portable ham station. In the industry, we call that dogfooding—where you eat your own dog food to see if it tastes any good.

Almost everything is from Amazon Black Friday deals, and I’ll show you whether this setup actually works, how it fits in the bag, and why I chose each part for this loadout.
This series will walk through the full portable station build: radios, power, bags, antennas, apps, and setup. No theory, no hypotheticals—just hands-on field gear and making it work.
This is ham radio the way it was meant to be: real gear, real mistakes, real setup, and real results.

Meet the Radioddity GS-10B — a compact dual-band handheld that might just punch above its price tag.
In this video, I unbox it, charge it, scan with it, and dive deep into its quirks — from the confusing USB-C-that-isn’t-really-USB-C, to its clever menu system, analog performance, and Bluetooth features.
Grab your coffee, hit subscribe, and let’s see what Radioddity snuck into the GS-10B!
