Enjoyed the archive video! Fun to see how the YTuber has changed their style and equipment. Note the laptop and you are not using your spiral notebook yet. Also you mentioned your antenna but did not show setup. The bands did seem tough that day! Thanks for sharing.
Are you going through the archive due to the hot mess that the sun has been causing? Kinda hard to make new stuff, when it's all noise these days, and QRP must be having a heck of a time punching through.
Ha ha! Actually, I was making videos at the time. The problem was that the lead-up to Hamvention was too busy for me to squeeze in full new field reports from the activations I'd already filmed. I found these and thought it would be fun to post them and a mini field report which I could schedule while at Hamvention. The activations I was performing in May are being released now. Propagation has been a hot mess for sure. In truth, though, it was back when this video was made, too.

Bands were really tough then. Thank you for the kind words! :)
👍
I can tell this video was from a while ago, by the color of the paddle you attached to the kx2
So funny! That was the first thing I noticed as well when I found this video!
