    I am amazed! You guys are 9.23 times the man I every was! That weather! Snow here means you look out your window and shiver and throw another log on the fireplace and thank God you are in a warm house! I have serious respect for you both. Great Video! Thank you for posting!

      @@W6RIPRadioAdventures I hope you're going to do more?? Been hoping for a while that someone would start a channel that merged these things. Its something that I do often and have for years.....but, I don't have the energy for the channel project, even tho I have considered it.....73 N8BEG

    I worked NL7V on 20m while I was activating earlier in the week and I had a similar thought - I grabbed my phone and got him on video saying his call and "73 from Alaska " too! Great video.

      Sorry for that. I just took off the Mid roll ads. I have noticed youtube has went ape shit with the ads in all videos. Its ridiculous now.

    Awesome video dude. Question the wire antenna you setup would you consider that a NVIS? Dust. Seem that high off the ground?

      Thanks Matt!. Yes. Pretty much NVIS being that low but sloped up to 15-20ft. It worked pretty well. Shows just getting a wire in the air will suffice. Lol 😆🤣

      @@W6RIPRadioAdventures thanks for the information. I still have a lot to learn. But I’m kinda a fan of the NVIS ANTENNA. Unfortunately my 891 probably won’t be in for month or more. And it’s killing me lol. Have everything but the Hf radio.

    You think stuffing that browning in your big Agnes bivy over your Cot might have been more comfortable when the stove goes out?

    • @W6RIPRadioAdventures
      @W6RIPRadioAdventures  3 роки тому

      Maybe. It would have helped the condensation from wetting the bag. I used a wool blanket up around the neck and shoulders to trap in the heat.
