  • @WilliamParmley
    @WilliamParmley 2 дні тому

    OK, that was a good review! This is definitely a backpackable mast. I've compared mine with my Spiderbeam 7 meter mast (which weighs a lot more) and I would say the flex is no more, and maybe a bit less, than the Spiderbeam. I'd much rather have this in my pack than having to carry my Spiderbeam mast. Very impressive! It's so funny, though, than none of the reviewers (or even GigaParts?) has a ruler. I've heard 14 inches, 16 inches, 17 inches, and 18 inches. (For some reason nobody I have heard has guessed 15 inches.) It's 17.5 with the end cap in place, by the way. And then weight -- even the supplied documentation says "less than a pound" and "1.1 pounds". 😁

    I randomly clicked on this video cause oh neat another mast I might like, and realized wait a minute I have that exact same pack! Mine is foliage green. I've had it for a decade it still works. One of the zippers is a little weak at this point but it still gets regular use. They came down in price which is surprising. I had mine shipped to me from Amazon over to Taji when I was there. EDIT: Actually mine is a Maxpedition Malaga, and they have not come down in price... similar though, my mistake. EDIT one more again: Everyone in ham radio loves the Anderson power poles, I am the odd duck there, I guess. I use XT60 connectors.

    I quite literally have the same setup. Mostly anyway. Love my Apollo, and love my X6100. I am still waiting on my POTA20 though. Ordered it the morning of release at HamVention and still have not recieved it. I love the shack in the box type radios though. I switched to the FX-4CR and a K6ARK 20W for my hiking setup. It is almost a one pound POTA contender, but the FX-4CR is a beefy little radio.

    Pretty complete kit! You have pretty much everything you'd need to do an activation. That being said............come to the dark side with us CW nuts, and you can make literally EVERYTHING for the activation (and I mean everything) in a Pelican 1060. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I like to carry a bigger, higher output all mode radio.....but if I'm carrying it in any distance, it's probably a Mountain Topper or other similar CW only QRP rig. If you do decide to learn Morse Code, we'd love to have you at the Long Island CW club (shameless plug lol).

      GigaParts did not give this mast to me because I make UA-cam videos. I purchased this mast at Dayton. I have no affiliation with GigaParts. The first batch available for preorder in May wasn’t supposed to ship for 4-8 weeks. The second batch they are taking orders for now doesn’t ship until September. It’s a new product. For all we know, they may be tweaking the design to make sure that you’re getting the best product that they can produce before this next batch. This happens with new products from other vendors as well.

    When I use RT Systems on my UV MD380 to program Echotest TG 9998 Pvt, it does not show up in the Received Groups list. If I use TG 9999 as a Group call, it will show up on the Received Groups list. Also, the amount of channels in each zone is cut down to 16 for UHF and 16 for VHF which only gives 32 Total, compared to the maximum of 64 (32 UHF and 32 VHF) channels when using the original CPS which I do Not use anymore.
