Yeah, it sees a good bit of activity from what I have seen. There are a lot of places that are good to setup too so it is used more than a lot of others in the area.
Great video and activation from the truck. You have a good choice of gear. I have been doing only portable ops from here in Florida and around the Caribbean for twenty years. Keep up the good work. Danny WZ1P.
Thank you! I am obsessed with Ten Tec gear! HaHa. I just love how the CW sounds coming out of one. Hope to work you soon, I also get to activate in Florida a good bit a couple times a year.
I second your advice at the end!! Keep the air radiated and throw your call sign out on your local repeater a couple of times a week..Handy to know people in your area in case of anything going really wrong! Cool video Dave, I got to learn CW good enough not to embarrass myself on the air over the winter...I have seen those radios a very few times at Hamfest but never used one..It sounds good! Yes, you should film yourself tearing your rig down so we can see you getting tangled up in your wire 😂😂😂
Thank you! Morse code is fun, but I also like a lot of other radio modes like single side band (where you talk to the microphone like I do at the end) and digital modes as well. IT is all fun.
Never knew anyone ever activated there. I come to Chickamauga quite a few times a year. I have family there.

Great activation. I really like the radio. All the best. 73s
Thank you! I love the Scout, I wished I had picked one up years ago now...

nice to see an American radio at a POTA!
I do love Ten Tec radios… I also enjoy a few other radios but my Ten Tec machines are by far my favorite. 👍

Thanks! Most people want way too much for them, but they are cool none the less. I like the modular design, it is just cool.
@@HamRadioTodaykind of like a retro camera, simply cool!
amazing sir

This might be a stupid question, but what's the point of all of the beeps and how did you know what state they're coming from?
No problem at all, that is morse code and I know it. They were sending information in a simple coded way.
Does anyone actually talk? Is there a point of the communication?
