What kind of cameras do you use? Besides the action camera, which is already visible in the frame.
For this video I mainly used a GoPro 10 and used an iPhone 14 for setup and scenery shots. In other videos I also use a Sony A6600 and DJI Action 2. The action cameras are very versatile but are no good for close ups of the radio. The Sony is useful for zoom and close ups but heavy to carry around, 73
Great Rig.
Is the 40meter output 2 or 5 watts? For me, 20 meters is 5 watts, and the rest is 2 or 3 watts.
The KH1 is a great radio. I get 4.5W to 5W on 40m and other bands according to the inbuilt power meter. The power is lower if the ATU doesn’t provide a good match, 73
