Today we’re diving into something a little different: the Talkpod N39Plus — a device that looks like a radio, feels like a radio… but isn’t what you think. This is virtual ham radio, and it lives somewhere between POC (Push-to-Talk over Cellular) and traditional ham gear.

Is it useful? Who’s it for? And why do some hams hate it?

🔍 In this video:
• Full unboxing + first impressions
• What is “virtual ham radio”?
• Talkpod N39Plus features and performance
• My honest opinion — and I want to hear yours!

Let’s break some stereotypes and maybe even open some minds.

Meet the Gabil HF750T — a palm-sized, coil-resonant vertical antenna that punches way above its weight. In this video, I unbox it, walk you through its 8 swappable coils (from 40-6m), and set it up on the Gabil tripod stand with a counterpoise. If you’ve been looking for ultra-portable HF/VHF performance, this one’s worth a serious look.
