I'm "The Tech Prepper" and I try to produce regular videos on all topics related to preparedness and ham radio. Be strong, be safe and be prepared.

@MarkSpringer @AD6DM @thedigirig Unfortunately, this was a one-time run. I am honored that there 25 total in the wild.

@DrKBecker @buymeacoffee It should be an interesting journey. Thanks for the support. 73's

Let's keep things simple. Is your SHTF gear ready for use? Here's something that I am experimenting with...

@CMcKayFL Thanks for the feedback, Corey. It's nice being forced into making content within a 60 second window. You have no choice but to get to the point. It's a win for the consumers and creators. Cheers!

Morning! I'm moving to two videos per month on YouTube so that I can focus on product development. The YouTube overlords will not be pleased, so I am dropping 3 to 5 "Shorts" on YouTube per week. Here's the last two weeks of shorts.

@CMcKayFL The barbed wire fence was more of an open circle with the counterpoise coming off like a tail. Almost like a cartoon message bubble. I am going to film the full video this Saturday. More details coming.

Be advised: I just posted a 48 second video short on the YouTube machine for my next "Improvised Field Comms" video.

Any thoughts, tips and tricks are appreciated. I will try to incorporate some of the feedback into the next video.

@CMcKayFL I tried both and couple of difference fences. I found the perpendicular to work better. https://t.co/vbPewMsiNt

@GrafixBorn I've been running the Haley Strategic D3CRM for years. Mine has taken a beating as I use mine 5-6 times per week, but it is still in one piece. It has made several appearances on the YT channel. Cheers!

@GrafixBorn Nicey done! You manpack looks amazing! I am working on another batch of 25 units.

[thetechprepper @thetechprepper1]

This was a fun video to make. I learned a ton with this antenna build and exercise. Happy weekend!

@GrafixBorn Nicely done. These Altoids tins are great for storing misc connectors and repair gear. I have one for each manpack. I also carry one in my pack. The trick is not forgetting to restock the components if you borrow them for a project.

[thetechprepper @thetechprepper1]

@GrafixBorn @floyddepalma He's working on more frames. As small business owners we're both struggling to keep up with the demand in this niche market. Thanks for the support.

[thetechprepper @thetechprepper1]

Happy Friday, All! I'm kicking off a new series. https://t.co/v0eHjz5yQa

Errata: My preference is the male split post BNC adapter for this application. I said female during the exercise.

@floyddepalma Wait, did you buy one? If so, I'm glad you snagged one. I will be a buyer at full price if you ever decide to sell it. Enjoy the rig.

Quartzfest was a blast! It was great playing radio and trying out a prototype 5-band Linked Dipole from @n9sab_ . It was purpose-built for NVIS deployments.
