I appreciate the clear model numbers and step by step descriptions you provided, sir!

Looks good. I'm guessing the landscape lighting is low voltage.

FYI... Based on other crown amplifiers the 2 extra input holes in the back panel are for pass through to another amplifier and the holes with the square portion at the top are the input holes with the extra space being for the connector release tab. Nice work around!

Very helpful,now understand how to build the units .Thanks Phil G4DCI

Very good and well thought out. Now im searching for the other video 😂

Ed, great video series. I’m also from Columbus. I now live in Scottsdale, AZ. I appreciate you experimenting on video so we can learn from you.

What a great project. Might try this myself. Would be even better if it had a remote switch which i could add using some sort of wifi connection from the house to the yard..

Good job on your ham radio go box. The only thing I would have suggested was including some USB C ports in your USB socket. Most modern cellphones and tablets use USB C ports for charging and data.

Fascinating as always! Great, informative watch.

6.8 pF 1KV CAP are available thru DigiKey. Part #561R10TCCV68-ND. $1.30 in single quantity. $0.97 for 10. Through Amazon the same cap is $3.78 for one plus $7.95 postage! Thanks for sharing this project.

What is the idea of the 4:1 balun on a screwdriver antenna?

Great detail thanks for showing, I have the powered pr-15s, would this work for them too?

Excellent video Ed! Thanks for sharing your insights and knowledge. I can honestly say your design has truly inspired and directed me in putting together a go box. Thanks and 73.

Nice Backyard!

Are those mixers a true 600watts per channel

It’s pretty cool how you did it. I would have hidden the phoenix plugs inside the amps but like this you can still use them if you want to.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm looking to do something similar but with a Yaesu FT-710 because it's what I already have. I'm still deciding what to use for an antenna so I'll watch your screwdriver antenna video next.

I hear so much about symetrical grounds run along the ground . but all it does is make a bunch of horizontal antennas that cancel each other out. If you only have a few going to one side it acts as a folded dipole and actually puts out a nice signal in a horizontal way. As long as it matches the coax the radio doesnt care if its a symetrical ground plane which radiates little or a horizontal radiator which gets out there.

I have heard that end fed antennas are the bomb and look forward to testing a 43 footer as it gets it up higher for lower angle signals. Have tried a 19 foot end fed vert and compared to a dipole on the roof and it did about the same. It can be a lot easier to hide a vertical tho. I have used dipoles and a 3 ele tribander for years. Got hamsticks 4 years ago and use them as verticals, horizontal and vertical dipoles, and multiples on a plate for a multiband wspr station. I have always found them to be within 1 db on both xmit and receive to various Websdrs all over US and Australia against EFHW's , full sized verticals and dipoles and even a Magloop which did poorly. For mobile, base or most anything the Hamsticks are awesome as verts or dipoles. Today i setup in a parking lot and found the hamsticks vs a full length vertical were equal.

Great idea!

Thanks for the video ....Can i ask what speakers you are using there. Really nice audio

Sar ji excellent job sar ji Maine yah aapse do teen sal pahle kar Diya

FB job and a very useful addition to a shack.

Hey Ed. You are doing exactly what I have always wanted to do. I had all my radios (Yaesu 2000D and all the accessories and DMU all ready to go in my Lawn Shed. My Father In-Law moved in a took over all my space, I sold all my gear. Now I watch UA-cam channels like yours and "Dream again". I would jump back into it again, but worried about my Health and Age now and fear of having it all left behind for my Wife to deal with it when I am gone. Love your setup in the Back Yard, mine was very similar. Keep up those videos, they are keeping my dreams alive. 73 sir. KC9RWE

I found your video extremely interesting and well done! Thank you for sharing this stimulating project. You've truly inspired me, to the point where I've decided to create a similar one. I want to share it on UA-cam, and in doing so, I want to thank you for giving me the idea. You've done an excellent job!

Bravo ! Thanks for posting !

If you run 100w how long this battery last?

Nice!!

Clays cool

thanks very much for a detailed and very informative video. I have PR15's and have owned them for many years and they perform very well but I May now consider this upgrade. very best wishes to you from NZ

a chop stick?

Hi, you connected the earth braid to the earth on the case at the box end but you do not show what you connected that braid to at the radio end of the cable.

Ed, thanks fot this nice video, 2 questions how to connect the + and - on the 12 volt with connectors other question can you make a video how it work with 2 antennes ? thanks again

What model was the new crossover?

luv it...very creative!

Thank You, one suggestion is to tie a knot in the cable inside the box so it cannot be pulled out.

Excellent! Thank you for your video. A very timely bias-T build, as I just had a cheap commercial one go bad (very noisy). I'll be building two of these ASAP.

Ed, I really enjoy your videos. One thing I did want to mention though. I like that you take the time to show the product number on all your projects, but those numbers on Amazon packaging don't seem to mean anything, and I at least can't find anything by searching for them. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. It would be very helpful if you provided links, or at least the ASIN number for each product, which can be found on the Amazon page product listing. That is easily searchable. If there is a way to search those X numbers, please let me know. Not a big deal, but in watching your other videos , I have found that trying to find the exact product you used is somewhat difficult. Thanks again.

Interesting video Ed. Having just gone through a similar process with an Anko brand "ON AIR" sign in my shack I thought it would be interesting to see how others have done this. I did mine a little differently. Switching AC to run a wall wart USB power supply to get 5V seems to be a bit of overkill, I don't like having AC so close to signal lines, even through a relay. I ran my PTT/send relay on 12V (from my shack power supply) with a simple 7805 regulator/heatsink/capacitors to get 5V to run my sign. I have had so many issues with RF interference from wall wart style power supplies, I will do anything to keep them away from my shack.

Brilliant project thanks for sharing. 73 de 7X2TT

fancy

Great project Ed! Thanks!

Ed, i love your videos and determination. I hope I have my wits and drive when I inevitably catch up to you in years of wisdom. 73

really enjoyed your video 6y5ho greetings from Montego Bay Jamaica

Good setup, but require a time to get on the air, I've assemble some similar ham_case for my portable operation ua-cam.com/video/6kygpEie-pc/v-deo.html

Awesome video Ed!

Thank you for this great video. This would really help me out. My antennas are a good 75’ from the shack, doing this will save on buying long lengths of coax. I was curious about how much power you are running through it. Also, how do you think it would work on UHF? Again, great idea!

Nice box. I have a similar one but aluminium.

Great video! I want to build this project, but with one additional modification- I want to add a switch to switch between two radios. Please, correct me if I'm wrong- I think I could use a DPDT switch. Join pin 7 from both radios to the audio transformer, while pin 1 from the radios goes to each end of one side of the switch. Center from that side of the switch goes to the audio transformer. For the PTT, the "tips" from the radios goes to each end of the other side of the switch, and the center of that side of the switch goes to "tip" on the jack. "Sleeves" from the radios join to "sleeve" on the jack. Does this sound like a plan, or am I overlooking something?

Just subscribed. Love your presentation style, and LOVE that you show part numbers in the video. Thanks!
