Looking for the right Summits On The Air day pack? I go over the packs I’ve used as well as my most recent purchase. In this video I also activate Two Rock Mountain W7A/YV-011 in the Prescott National Forest with my buddy Brian W7JET. This hike had quite a challenging bushwhack to it.

A rather windy day here at the VK7HH QTH. So I thought I’d take a nice calming video of the DX commander swaying in the wind.

Today I have Paul VK3HN on the channel to discuss all things QRP and SOTA. Paul is a prolific SOTA operator who enjoys building homebrew QRP radios for his portable operations.
His QRZ says "I am an amateur builder, not so much a designer, so my focus is on rigs that can be made with unsophisticated tools and practices, and still deliver good performance and a good user experience".
Paul will cover how viewers can move beyond building a kit, to building a small rig that is their own creation.
– What features are essential for SOTA/portable success in a homebrew rig?
– What features you can omit?
– How to avoid complexity and getting bogged down
– What tools do you need?
– How do you get started?
Join us in the live chat and ask questions as we go along!
Captain Shawn Hoffman, KO4IDY, wants to know how to set up his antennas on his steel ship, so he can transmit while at Sea.

One of the Ham Radio Antennas that I have used most often for POTA – Parks on the Air – is the TN07 SFP-102 32′ telescoping flagpole antenna, which includes a matching unit capable of operating 10-80 meters with no tuner. This is a great antenna for simple and easy deployment, and it works great on multiple bands. Let’s activate K-3013, Galveston Island State Park today while using this antenna!
