This is a completely unplanned, mildly stressful, and frankly irresponsible attempt to change the battery in my DJI Pocket 2. There are no instructions. Things are bent. A heat shield is sacrificed. At least one screw escapes forever. I had some fun though – and learned a few things. Don’t try – never learn!
And yet… it works!
This little camera has earned its keep for years out in the field, so rather than bin it, I thought I’d have a go. If you’re looking for a proper tutorial, take note. If you want reassurance that mistakes can still lead to success – you’re in the right place.
Consider this a cautionary tale, a backup-camera rescue mission, and proof that gaffer tape is still a valid engineering solution.
While on a mini vacation I caught CE3WB in Santiago Chile on the air. It’s amazing to catch a DX or Long Distance contact when you’re operating portable amateur radio!

If you’ve ever struggled with high SWR, long coax runs, or constantly re-tuning when you change bands, this might be the upgrade that fixes it. In this video, I’ll show how the URT-1 integrates with the Chameleon MIL Whip and the 17′ Stainless Steel Whip, how I mounted it on my RV, and what kind of matching range you can really expect from a remote tuner at the antenna.
This isn’t a “review” — it’s a real-world test of whether putting the tuner at the antenna feedpoint actually makes a difference for portable or mobile operators.

Toads Digital Interface Board: Prototyping Made Easy #shorts
Introducing the Toads Digital Interface Board! Connect transistors, audio (L/R in/out), carrier squelch, and PTT—all in one place. Prototyping can get messy, but cleanup is key!
🚀 Turn your old radios into digital-mode powerhouses! In this video, I show you the TOADs DI board and the new DI6 daughter board — a plug-and-play sound card interface that connects your radio to your computer over USB-C.
With just one board, you can run:
• Winlink 📡
• APRS 🚗
• FT8 🌐
• ANY digital mode you want
No more struggling with cables, custom wiring, or expensive interfaces — the TOADs DI6 makes it simple. (Of course if you like that kinda thing, the TOADs DI is for you!)
📌 In this video, I’ll show you:
• What the DI6 is and how it works
• How to connect it to your radio & PC
• Live demo of digital modes in action
• Why it might be the easiest way to bring your rig into the modern digital world

This video explains antenna wire selection, focusing on material properties like conductivity and skin effect, which influence resistance and signal loss. Understanding these elements is crucial for any ham radio antenna or amateur radio antenna setup. It also touches upon radiation resistance and how velocity factor determines the electrical length of the wire, a key concept in electrical engineering and transmission line theory.
