How-To: Set up an HF portable radio while hiking
Fall is the perfect time for hiking, it’s not too hot and not too cold. Last weekend I took a day trip to hike up High Mountain in New Jersey and activate SOTA summit W2/NJ008. It’s really easy to set up an HF portable radio and not a whole lot to carry up the mountain. This video shows how to get set up including how to hang the antenna in a cluster of trees and making contact with Italy.

Excellent video. The Yaesu FT-857D is a good rig, but the price is astronomical. After taxes, you will spend about $800.00 for it.

Well, that’s in the US. The guv’ment (FCC) passed the new rules…I wanna say about 3 years ago…maybe more like 5… Anyhow, no code needed in the US for any class of license. I think to use some bands, however you have to code because they are CW only. Someone can check me on that if I’m mistaken.
Cool, thanks.
