I picked up the DigiRig DR-891 sound interface, which is specifically made for the Yaesu FT-891 radio. The FT-891 doesn't have its own built-in sound card, so this interface is a great step towards making the FT-891 plug-n-play. Let's take a look at how to set this up and how simple it is to make FT8 contacts from POTA with this DigiRig.

Soon there will be 2 versions of this device - one that is fully integrated with Google, and one that has Google completely removed. Both will run Android 14 and both will have Dual Band, Part-90 2-way radios built in. This is going to be a fun project!

On Friday, August 16 of this year, we met as a group at the Monte Sano State Park in Alabama before the Huntsville Hamfest. This is our 3rd year to do this type of meetup - myself and other YouTubers all gather and invite our audiences for a fun-filled day of POTA at the State Park. @AA0Z volunteered to cook lunch for everyone again this year, and asked for donations to cover food costs. All donation money received above and beyond expenses is being donated to the ARRL Teachers' Institute. During this livestream, we will offer a recap of that event, present Steve, K5ATA, with the earnings from this year, and learn more about the TI program at ARRL.

Join us tonight for the livestream to talk about a multitude of things - should I create another Facebook page for Ham Radio 2.0? As most of you know, my account was hacked earlier this year, then it was banned. After several hundred emails to Facebook, no reply was ever received. So I am thinking about creating a new Page for this channel.
Also, if you haven't already, sign-up for my email list. The list it around 19,300 subscribers right now, and when it reaches 20,000, I will be giving away another HF radio. Sign-up here - https://hamradio2.com/email-signup

I made a couple of videos about products that Temu sent me and they want you to install their app to get a $100 coupon that they offered to me, to give to you. But in my videos I said I would install the app onto a tablet or device that isn't my main EDC device, and maybe doesn't have any personal data on it. Well, according to this article and group, that is a good idea.

Ham Radio Clubs can be both good and bad, but the bad ones often give a false narrative of what a club is, and they can drown-out the good ones.

Meshtastic is a great way to use a license-free communications system via text messaging. It uses LoRa, which is a long-range radio system, to communicate. I've had a few of these devices for a while and I am getting them setup to take to Dayton Hamvention next week. In this video I show how to flash 2 different models of units and how they work together.

Did your high school have a disaster prep class? Mine didn't. I wish it had. This is a story of a high school in California where 1 student decided to take it upon himself to get involved in his local C.E.R.T. training and bring it into his high school for other students. This is a great idea and one that I hope to see more commonly, moving forward.

Lab599 has revealed a new Manpack portable QRP radio that they are calling the TX-500MP. This looks similar to their previous TX-500 model, but it is clearly made to drop into a backpack and has all of the ports on the top of the radio for easy access. Very little is known about this radio right now, but I will share with you what I have learned so far.

Activating a Park for POTA can be the closest way to get to experience pile-ups inside of the USA - "being the DX" is something that you normally only experience outside of the USA when on a DXpedition or vacation trip. So how do you work all of those stations that are coming back to you, all at once? Today I show how I work pile-ups and what I have learned along the way of activating POTA.

There is a new movie that will premiere in theaters next month called Roswell Delirium and it features the use of some older Ham Radio equipment, which is very interesting to watch. I plan to go see the movie when it releases and give it a good evaluation but I thought the trailer provided some great clips of Ham Radio usage, so here it is.

A brand new radio from Wouxun, the KG-Q10H includes 4 Ham Radio bands that are actually USEABLE, at least in the USA. The 3rd and 4th band, 1.25M and 6M, are not as popular as 2M/70cm but there are FM repeaters around for those bands, and they get some good simplex activity, when used. I like this radio - let's see how it tests on a power meter

My first video about the VHQ Hexbeam was recorded at the Orlando Hamcation of 2023 - since then, lots of people have taken an interest in this fantastic antenna, and David, the designer, has created lots of new and happy customers.
Today I get to follow up with David at the Dayton Hamvention of 2023 to see how sales are going and how happy his customers are that have purchased the KING of Hexbeams since February!

Tonight's livestream will discuss my latest fascination with bags for ham radios - not just storage bags or carrying packs, but bags that are made to hold an entire radio station. Unzip the top and operate. Throw it over your shoulder and hike up a mountain while working the transceiver. Have you ever used a radio like this? What bag did you use?

Two new stories from Fall of 2022 show how Ham Radio can literally save lives, even in these modern times. Cell phone networks can be unreliable in many areas - and sometimes you simply can't get to a phone. These 2 stories were shared on the ARRL website and I think they both make great examples of how Ham Radio is not only relevant, but NEEDED by many, still today.

I bought this battery box from Amazon to hold my 50AH Redodo Battery. So far it is working great - it is well-built, easy to carry, and has a few options for connections and ports, but I plan to change those shortly. Let me know your thoughts on what ports you would like to see on a battery box.

I'm enjoying these battery test and review videos for LifePO4 batteries - several companies are now emailing and asking me to make a video of their battery, and that is how I got my hands on this PowerUrus 100AH battery. Searching YouTube you can find some videos about other versions of this battery, and they are sometimes referred to as "RoyPow" batteries - RoyPow is actually the name of the app that connects to the battery with Bluetooth, which I really like. Take a look at the video and let me know what you think!

Ever since the first Anytone Mobile DMR Radio was released with the Bluetooth option, but no removeable screen, we've been wanting a solution to mount this radio remotely in vehicles. FINALLY Anytone has released a Bluetooth Remote for all of their mobile radios, ones with and without Bluetooth, but it is different than what we expected. Is it worth it?

It is fun livestreaming FT8 contacts when the bands are open, especially on the bands like 10-meters that don't get used as often. I have been working FT8 for the passed few days on 10M, 15M and 17M and I thought it would make for a fun livestream to do some of this again. Join me for the lunchtime livestream today and we will see if 10M is still open! If not, we will go back to 15M, which has been really hot lately also.

SporTube makes travel cases for skies, snowboards, poles, fishing rods.....and Ham Radio Antennas! They probably don't know that last part, though. Anyway, this case worked GREAT for carrying my BuddiHex Hexbeam and Mastwerks Tripod down to Costa Rica. It is strong enough to keep your equipment safe when checking it as a bag on an airplane. Take a look!

This week was the Texas Snowmageddon - The first Winter Storm of 2021 and it was a record-breaking event for weather all across Texas. We saw record lows temps, record snowfall, and record outages of power, water and communications.
What did I learn? What can WE learn from this? Were we not prepared? How can we become more prepared for future events and more Self Reliant?
Tonight I will share my thoughts about this event, the Winter Storm 2021 experiences I had this past week, and how I plan to prepare for them next time. Your input and thoughts are welcome!
