The YouTubers Bunch
Any hobby done well is expensive. Fishing and Golf cost about a THOUSAND notes to get into – so does Astrophotography (for instance). But how much can we build our first station for? Let’s have a look. 73, Callum, M0MCX.
I’m getting rid of all this wire (it’s gone now already!). If you want 2nd reserve in case Aaron can’t make it, leave a comment 🙂
Not all PL259s are the same. The newer designs are a superior design and accurate. Anyway, I nearly cock this up. Perhaps rate me out of 10! Callum.
YouTube has been good to me – meaning YOU, the audience, has enabled me to grow this channel to where it is today. These are 4 Ways I am giving back from my YouTube earnings.

Growth of the channel to almost 8 years old, 115,000+ subscribers and over 10,000,000 hours of watch time can take a toll – but worry not! I love doing YouTube and making videos about Ham Radio!

It really doesn’t matter to me, but you can make the hobby more pleasurable by following some basic rules of the road and chosing to follow some best practices. Find a role-model that you enjoy listening to, don’t fall into the trap of taking short cuts. On the other hand, this is not life-or-death! Callum, M0MCX.
