- Today we take the new to me Kenwood TS-50S for its first POTA activation and it did not disappoint! Off camera, I did a CW activation at 100W and netted 25 contacts in 40 minutes. Then I turned on the camera for a late shift activation on SSB where we got a second activation!

Equipment used:
Kenwood TS-50S Transceiver
Kenwood AT-50 ATU
MFJ 20M HAM Stick on a Magnetic Mount
Go-Pro Hero 5 Black
That's an incredible trade! Enjoy!
It's been a blast so far
Loved that sneaky lil Muscle Pack TS-50S with its external AT-50 Unit. I used to run it with an Astatic 575M6 Microphone. Happy Holidays & 73 de Uncle Guenter 💯👍🙋♂
For such a small package it gives a big punch. My FT-891 has some competition for sure
Great video.
I have birded the Lac Dubois Grasslands many times. Never played radio there though. I hope to do that someday.
Did you notice the Short-eared Owl flying by at 1:40?

I didn't until you pointed it out. Good eye
Hi Austin. Any reason you were running a .1K split? it made it very difficult to understand the other stations. Looks like you had a good time anyway! I'll be at VE-5500 later today. Have fun! Just watched you turn off RIT @10:00.
The radio has an intermittent drift where it'll be off by 0.1 in person it made it easier to understand but during the editing I noticed it didn't sound as clear on the video. Next time I record with it I'll see if I can leave RIT off
Nice one! Found you here on YT! Subscribed.

Thanks! The TS-50 is a fun radio to activate with.
