If you’re into ham radio and love hiking, then Summits on the Air is the perfect activity for you. In this video, I’ll be giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what I pack in my backpack for a day on the summit. You’ll get to see most of the gear I use to keep myself comfortable and safe while hiking and operating in the mountains. The contents will vary with the seasons and expected conditions in the field.
