Post by: Jon_Garfio on April 11, 2018, 03:50:49 PM
Here you are a dipole that I just made to bring It to mountain into the backpack.

I try to get performance with ligher weight.

The video is in spanish lenguage but if somebody needs any info I don't have any problem to share It.

Very nice. I did buy a spool of that yellow wire from SotaBeams, very light indeed. I wish they put a BNC connector on that PCB. SotaBeams has some cool stuff, like QRPGuys, very light for SOTA. I understood quite a bit of the Spanish; lots of words similar to French!

Tnx Gil. Perhaps if I speak in catalán lenguage you are going to understand better.

Yes, QRPGUYS and Sotabeams make good and cheap gear for mountain radio.

Do you have YouTube automatic subtitles turned on for language conversion? Assuming YouTube does that?

YT allows subtitles in the same lenguaje of the video.
