Testing the Surecom SW-112 simplex handheld repeater while hiking at Providence Canyon, Georgia.

- I went hiking to the beautiful Providence Canyon in Georgia and wanted to test the Surecom SW-112 simplex repeater (you can watch my video about the repeater) on this type of environment.
I use my hiking handheld the Baofeng UV9G with the Nagoya 771G antenna, and the Tidradio TD-H8 handheld connected to the repeater. As you will see it worked very good. I was surprised because the line of sight is very bad because of the elevation drop and the big stone walls. I set it up in my truck connected to the mobile antenna Midland MXTA26.
A very good set up when you are out with a group, your family, or just by yourself to improve the range of your radios or to test equipment.

I am very impressed with the range considering the altitude and rock wall drops. I didn't think you would have any signal ...but, it was really strong. Great job and thanks for the new videos you have been busy!😮 I have driven through that area many times and I have been meaning to check out Providence Canyon.
@mitchh6702 Yes Mitch, I was impressed also. Not a single blind spot and good comms. The park is really nice, give it a try. But save some energy for the walk up to get out at the end! 🤣
Thank you for watching 👍🏻
Thanks for the great videos on the Surcom SW-112, I have the BTECH GMRS 50V2 I use as a base unit with the adapter that would work great with that simplex repeater.
@@reloader7sixtwo I bought that radio for that reason! It works awesome with the repeater. Videos coming! Thank you for watching 👍🏻
What brand and model backpack are you using in the video?
@antoarre It is just a cheap Ozark Trail from Walmart. But it's very comfortable and it's been with me 3 years now. Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
@@practicalgadgetsandstuff Thanks for letting me know. Really enjoying your videos. Keep up the great work!
@@antoarre thank you! Some videos coming up!
