Posts like this make my day. Game radio is FUN and it’s great to see people getting active with 2m simplex. Leave no band behind!!
.@Kennerknecht I know I'm late to your 146.520 MHz initiative of earlier this year (kudos!): this morning I made a quick QSO on 2 meters & it was so awesome ! Took my FT-65R to Tinton Falls, NJ for a day trip (I live in Staten Island, NY, never had a 2 m simplex there) #HamRadio

I did my first Pack Mule @Kd9Njj 🤘 It was a #SOTA (W2/WE-098) & #POTA (US-5098) ⛰️ I got 30 contacts on 6 bands, 6m-23cm, including some on 900 MHz & 1.2 GHz @K0NR 🙌 All analog & #QRP too 💪 It was a lot of work hiking & setting/packing up, but it was FUN 😊 #LeaveNoBandBehind

Early signs of a 6 meter band opening. It starts with a DX Maps email alert. You check PSK reporter and see a station to your East is getting out. Only seeing spotty signals on WSJT-X and one decode from a station to the West. You try calling CQ ... Nothing. It could amount to nothing. But more likely it's just a matter of time. 🙂 GL 73!

I got 10 pounds of antennas in the mail yesterday 😂 I’ll be helping @relianceantenna and selling them at the upcoming RARA Hamfest next Saturday, June 20 🤘 rochesterham.org/hamfest.htm

Six meter propagation this morning. I sure hope we don't use up all of the sporadic-e clouds before the VHF contest this weekend.

🚨🚨🚨 We're giving away a radio! I just heard from @N1JUR that he'll be giving away a UV-5Rx3 tri-band HT from @radioddity. Tune-in this morning for your chance to win and lots of great discussion about VHF, including 220 MHz. Leave no band behind!
🚨 Today at 10:00am EDT (1400 UTC), join me on Brew & Activate with @N1JUR ☕ I'll share how to get busy over 50 (MHz) in the VHF contest this weekend 📡 youtube.com/live/KMaOFDBNm-k…

Collecting some info for a project ... Two questions ... 1) What year were you licensed as a ham radio operator? 2) What were your first two radios? For example: I was licensed in 2022. My first two radios were a Baofeng UV-5R and an Icom IC-255A. P.S. I still use both.

Reading at the racetrack while my son is doing laps. What’s y’all’s excuse for not doing the Five Two Summer Reading Challenge? BTW @K0NR, after seeing the data, I think I’ll need to do a #SOTA on 33cm soon. Just had a ham email me about 900MHz too 😊 #LeaveNoBandBehind #52SRC

I blame @TheSmokinApe for my latest purchases. But he’s got a point. Test your gear. There’ll be some surprises in an upcoming video.
