AFTER CHAT: Christmas Light Antenna!!! 7th Annual!

AFTER CHAT: Christmas Light Antenna!!! 7th Annual!

Tonight I attempt to make long range high frequency (HF) Ham Radio contacts via homemade Christmas light antenna. This is the seventh year of my making these antennas and testing them live on the air. Yes, you will see bright lights and Christmas lights burning out as I crank up the RF power!
