Nice to see this old WW2 receiver and transmitter still working and transmitting and receiving good quality signal. It's nice to see dedicated users of this equipement taking good care or the equipment and keep it working in good condition. Bravo
Precioso el vídeo , nos lleva a esos tiempos de la radio que no conocimos ,y la velocidad de la telegrafía sin necesidad de descodificadores , así da gusto comprender todo el QSO , un saludo de EA1IRO 73
Dear Helge: You are a very brave man; to raise a wire under that stormy sky. You could have been "immortalized" as Benjamin Franklin Thamks for sharing that beautiful equipment. Regards. Edgardo LU1AR
Can you imagine being one of the 3 men tasked with carrying and operating a radio intellegence setup like this in the field. You had too be Mules as well as Infantrymen along with Radio operators.
I love a good kite-antenna video. Kevlar-reinforced wire is new to me, I'll never forget, because my dream is HF with a kite antenna on a little rowboat, on a little fresh water lake. (Just me, a rabbi, and an encyclopedia salesman; sorry, that's another joke.) II never thought anyone could get a spontaneous QSO on the longer waves. Only in Europe? Your sending on the straight key sounds machine generated (that's a compliment). WW2 surplus radios look like new, I'm sure they been through the war, and then it took a labor of love to get them all shiny and perfect, again. I see you have another kite video :))
Awesome vodeo, thanks. Probably would be easier to setup and end fed half wave on a fiberglass telescoping mast. :) Was fascinating to see a kite antenna.
It's good to see this type of gear in use. Your videos are always excellent. Amazing how well preserved your former Wehrmacht radios and transmitters are! I wonder if the antenna wire is light enough to be raised aloft by a drone?
It takes a strong drone due to the weight of the wire length. It would be very limited in useful antenna time as most drones don't have much than 20-35 minutes of flight autonomy from batteries. The kite is a better long term setup, when the wind cooperate , of course.
This reminds me of my late dad , he was an amateur radio lover. I still remember is call sign ZS2PO. Thank you for sharing this and bringing back beautiful memories of my father.
A kite antenna was used on emergency transmitters at sea. They used almost the same frequency 500 kHz. They did not use the kite for this transmitter. ruclips.net/video/nCZU0HBKTUE/видео.html
Brave man. I'm guessing that beast weighs as much as it looks like it does......I had a WW2 submarine HF receiver once, it weighed about 120kgs, and was bigger than many a small town....
Very nice. It's been 40 years since I did any code copy. I'm so rusty but I still recognize the cadence and form of the letters even if I can't copy them anymore. Very interesting.
Friend, this was the coolest thing I've seen in a long while! I am inspired to make a kite antenna now. That gear is made of unobtanium here in the states though. You are now my personal hero!

Thanks for the nice comments.
Hi Helge. Thanks for the nice CW QSO we had on 600meters. Great video you made :) 73's de LA3EQ Jan
Thanks for the video. I greatly enjoyed it. I'll never again complain about the weight of my IC-7300 when operating portable.
so m i.
my gear icom ic 706mkii. tnx cu
Wow that is so neat, imagine the stories a radio like that could tell
A fantastic demonstration, I loved the antenna attached to the kite 👏👏👏

Tanks for your vidio. David from Indonesia. God Bless you
Amazing that the antenna was still radiating RF even when it was on the ground! Thanks for sharing Helge. 73 de DC4DC
After this recording, I have had many QSOs at 80 meters with the antenna on the ground. I will return with a separate program on this.
I love these old radios.I have a vintage Swan 350 . 73 to you!!
Thanks for the video, I am glad to see a QSO on MF a band that I have used as a radio officer for more than 22 years.
That is a nice radio to work CW with! I love the kite, seems to work well. Larry Chicago, US.

@@vener6 Yes.....Good point on the operating time for drones. Duh.
Really enjoyed the video. The equipment looks to be in mint condition. And I love the idea of using a kite for the antenna. Cheers. 73, Nigel, VE3IMF
Amazing...
Very nice and good performance of amateur radio...👍👍 Best regard from me in Indonesia.
I always enjoy your field demonstrations! 73
Молодец! Очень здорово! Поздравляю!!!!
Lovely radios there. I was waiting for that table to give way under the weight! Great results with the kite antenna too 👍

Very nice ! Thanks for sharing !
Очень круто! Всегда в шоке от вашего подхода, как радиолюбителя!
Hey Signaler,send a quick message,yhhhh,no give me 10 mins to set up.British Larkspur stuff up to 1984 was same.
Felicitaciones 73s cordiales desde Chile CA 5 FGI Francisco.
Супер! Старая техника работает надёжно. Удачи!!! RT9TM. 73!!!
The people who built this would have been utterly mystified by the laptop! Great way to monitor your remote reception.
Nice job LA6NCA ! Congrats and 73. PY2NDB

Nice contact & great radio, Thanks From VE7-FIE
Wonderful, congratulations on the copy, very good.
Great Helge! I am very interested in your tests and OSOs with this old equipments. Tnx es 73.
I really like this video and hope that the condition will always be maintained The radio...Amateur Greetings from Indonesia
very cool, were antennas attached to kites also used originally back in the time of these devices?
A kite antenna was used on emergency transmitters at sea. They used almost the same frequency 500 kHz. They did not use the kite for this transmitter.

Thank you for your videos. I always love the old valves army equipment and i have old RX s .My 73 s from 5B4ER.
Tusen takk de Dave WA1LBP. Interesting to see the equipment and your nice kite antenna arrangement.
that stuff was meant to be mounted in a military vehicle.
i suggest you buy a half track. that should get you ANYWHERE!
Interesting...radio signal & Morse Code..i like it...👍👍👍👍👍
What a wonderful QRV!
