I’ve heard of people running with just the resonator. I have a 53”(?) mast and 75, 40 & 20 meter resonators. I mounted 3/8x24 mount on back corner of truck bed. I’ve tried going 55 mph on a 2 highway and it held up ok. I’ll have to get a 3/8 stud and try mounting a resonator to see how it works to save wind resistance and height clearance.

Having the same issus. I till give it a try!

Impecable ..como se llaman esos.cierres para los tubos..?

Cq cq cq de us3isg😉

i run a 22in truck ext. and a spring + 40m resenator at 80mph

Everything about him yelled "hookup". You made the right choice to bug out.

In 2015 Olkmaha ef-5 tornado

Capacitance hat! LY2H has a vid on this, as does QRPer so they can get the AX1 resonant for use with radios lacking tuners!

You said spiders down there ? Nah I’ll take my chances with the tornado up Top

I wish you would have shown the swr at each end of the band.

I'm at 37wpm send right now.

Top tip… learn to RX CW before TX, dont use paper for anything just learn each letter as a musical phrase. Great video, congratulations on wanting to learn CW! M0KTY

He is loud but his hum is superb…

Thank you very much! I just found one of these and decided to use it and you answered all my questions. Thank you.

Hello, I have a question. I have the similar P-Touch label but the LCD screen is not working because every time I insert the batteries I turn it “On” and the screen is barely noticeable, but also black boxes appear. They don’t respond to any command or key that I touch. What should I do? Thank you beforehand 😢

Stop being a crybaby.

The more videos I see on this radio, the more I think I might get one for POTA, portable, and RV'ing. The menu system is scary - ha. I have an FT-710 in my shack.

It's just a few steps, so what's the big deal? And if you're afraid of bugs, clean it out every once in a while.

7:46 What Do You Mean When You Say Man That’s Loud.

Be thankful that you have a safe haven dude……🙏🏽

Que papo de aranha!!

I hear tornado sirens sound it is close They are going off because the tornado warning

Very useful tnx !

Very nice shot and great video on Supercell development. If you estimated you were 100 miles away from that Supercell, the anvil top must be about 60,000 ft, give or take.😊

It's an unobtainable radio. I tried for months to get the 3b, and I never could. If it is that popular, they may ask for help with production. I went with a QMX and QMX+ instead. It's a far better radio.

Seems like a slight breeze would blow that hatch opening. Even if it was locked.

I used to be a fan of frequency agile non-resonant antennas, such as 135ft OCFD and Windoms. I have in recent years moved primarily to 135ft EFHW antennas that are resonant. They have nearly the same efficiency as resonant dipoles and they are much easier to deploy. Your antenna looks like it is based upon a military design. That does not mean it is an efficient antenna. It means it is frequency agile, rugged, and can be deployed by ignorant GIs. I get concerned when I see a tuner is a necessary part of the system. In the strictest sense as defined by PhD Ben Witveit, the one Dr NVIS, NVIS range is 200km to sometimes 300km. This is my setup for NVIS. I thought I watched your video a year or two back and commented, but I didn't see my previous comment. ruclips.net/video/Q1CJfAQ15ds/видео.htmlsi=sLYqJ0-OkCZyD7oU

You better put a crow bar in there

You lost me at iCom. It’s not an Apple device. It’s an Icom.

The lean is really easily overcome simply by replacing the tripod with guy wires. We put these up without tripods and the way you do it is you have a total of 8 guy wires 4 at one level (about 12 ft) and 4 at another level (about 24 ft). you draw a line straight through the base plate, go out about 12 ' from the base plate (mast sections are 4') in either direction and attach an anchor then you lay the antenna down so that the antenna is perpendicular to your base anchor line and place another anchor next to the antenna 12' from the base plate. then place another anchor 12' in the opposite direction of the antenna. You should now have 4 anchors all 12' from the base plate (think of base plate as pitchers mound and the 4 anchors, home, 1st 2nd and 3rd base. Then attach 4 guy wires from the 12' high (on the mast) point and run 2 to each side anchor. Next attach 4 guy wires from the 24' high (on the mast) and attache them to the side anchors. So using the baseball analogy the base plate is the pitchers mount, the side anchors are 1st and 3rd. you will then take a 24'(high) and a 12' (high) guy wire that are attached at 12, and 24 on the mast and run those out to 2nd base. You will now have left one 12' wire and one 24' wire (attached to the mast at those heights you will use the 24' wire to pull the antenna up. You will start at the base plate and as you pull the end wire up it will begin to bow in the middle with the end coming up when the end/top of the antenna gets about 10 to feet in the air you will then begin pulling on the 24' wire and the 12' wire at the same time and the mast will eventually stand itself (like a bow returning to its natural state) up and you will attach the last two wires at home plate. Once all of your anchors are secure it will withstand gale force winds.

That doesn't draw water through the tarp? I'm thinking because of the blue attachment? I'm having a heck of a Time draining my pull tarp without drawing the water that's good underneath through. So if this doesn't do that would you please let me know because I'm desperate at this point

I got 'em both and I agree with you. The 891 is a monster receiving tho'...😮

As I understand it the goal of NVIS communications is to achieve local to statewide communications in an emergency. To test NVIS communications you need to be transmitting when other hams in your state are on the air. I did this from my QTH in Boca Raton FL. during the Florida QSO Party. I set up a 40 meter dipole at about 15 feet in my side yard and called CQ on 40 meters. Over the 2day period I made contacts in 30 Florida counties out of a possible 67. I was working 40 in the morning and evening. My goal was to test my ability to reach out after a hurricane. I think I was fairly successful, considering that I just got my General in December.

I couldn't see all of the picture because of the words over them. I didn't have any CC on. I wanted to actually see the words and pictures of the memorial. The video wasn't that long. I loved the Storm Chasers episodes. My condolences to the friends and families. 😢

Same radio and tuner I've had since 2008.

I saw it in summer at 11 something just at night

Thank for this video.

Motion lights

Leaving money for the dead is ingrained within several cultures…. Not mess or weird

Hey man, this REALLY helps. Thank you.

A lot of storm chasers live in this area , plenty to grow up with and learn the real safety of how to be safe , hoping to make a difference in on the ground sighting as it’s this warning that gets aired and measures are elevated to its maximium with most who live with them not trying to be looky looos

Stay in the hotel it’s not safe to be outside in a tornado

This was us, this past Sunday morning, here in Rogers AR

I don’t love the idea of the underground shelter being below the house, you could be trapped for a long time and with gas leaks, flooding, down electric poles, etc, no telling. This summer I’m gonna do the dirt work on a shelter that’s gonna be built into the side of a hill near the house. It’ll also serve a dual purpose as a cellar for canned goods and whatnot because of how cool it will stay. Gonna be completely sealed all the way around to keep the critters out, with an emergency port built into the door in case of the off chance that something heavy is thrown in front of the door while we’re inside.

this is not a feature. you have failed to do maintenance on your tomb.

Hi Tom! Thank you for the job you did by creating this video! So far, this is the most helpful for newbies I could find! Thank you SO MUCH! Also, thanks to all who partake in commenting on it, many of them also helps a lot or give some meaningful thoughts.

Better in the shelter than the alternative. We keep a go bag in the shelter. If there's a chance that the weather will turn bad, we have flashlights ready along with another bag containing keys, meds, ID, cash, credit cards. Go bags are always in the shelter. Spent an hour in it yesterday. Shelter was worth every penny.

I think the shelter is to small for 2 people and if you did get stuck down there I would be thinking of a another way out . And something that can alert someone when they come

Thanks for the video,I have the same antenna n can't get it below 5.0:1 on 20m so will try in totally different area.looking forward to the coil n 40m.73

You said in ham radio every man is an old man which is correct but not every lady is a young lady. Typically once you marry them they are an ExYL.
