With “High Band” and “Classic Band” RF boards individually available now, I wanted to make a new case that allows for easy swap of the RF board without having to disassemble the complete case. So, here it is!
STL files are available as a "remix" of DL2MAN’s design on the Prusa website:

Print up your own, give it a try, and let me know how it works for you.
I spent FAR TOO much time editing this 2:30 mins Trailer! I ued it for the Premiere at https://youtu.be/lDPeFvQIo3Q and serves as a great memory jogger for an amazing weekend. Be inspired! Go and have fun out in the country. Nothing beats it. We made 350 contacts and 50 countries at 100W and with regular AGM 12V batteries across about 7 hours of operating. HF Antenna was DX Commander Expedition and VHF was Diamond V-2000 on a Clark 8m mast. TS-590SG for HF and TS-2000 for VHF. Just for fun! Thanks to Tom M0RMY, Tim M0URX, Jonathan M0JSX, Carl M0SZT and Mike M0MSN for the fun and games.

QRP is a ham radio term that means “low power transition”. Most people agree QRP is not more than 10 watts output power. So why do most people who participate in Summits on the Air use a 10-watt radio when there are so many radios out there that transmit 100 watts or more? In this video I offer up my explanation.
I drove to the top of Mingus Mountain to operate my radio for Summits on The Air using 100 Watts. This was for the North American Summit to Summit event. While on the mountain I encounter a hang glider and a paraglider preparing to hop off the mountain.
