    Winter Field Day takes place once a year at the end of January. This year a small group of us went to Mt. Vaca. Both the weather and HF conditions were great!
    The Buddihex will be available to purchase soon. This antenna blew me away in performance. Make sure you watch www.buddipole.... for more info and product availability.

    • @HamRadioTV
      @HamRadioTV  3 года назад

      Thanks! Yeah, it was crazy seeing the snow up there. HF is great up there, next to no noise. High band has a little intermod, but it's not bad.

    Wow, I'm right here in Vacaville, and this looks like a blast! I'm not into HAM radio yet, although I've been interested for years. How does a guy like me get started?

      A great resource is hamstudy.org
      They have practice tests, study material, and you can find a testing center including online ones. Check it out!

    • @HamRadioTV
      @HamRadioTV  3 года назад +2

      Ham radio is a lot of fun and there is so many things you can do with it or it can even complement an existing hobby! Follow that link Mike dropped. Take a bunch of practice tests online and then sign up for the real one, which is the same as the practice tests.

    Good video this antenna is really very good, just one question does it work on the 11 meter band?

  • @andrewessels7871
    @andrewessels7871 Год назад

    Did you erect the beam under the high voltage power lines or is just the angel of the camera? Hope this is not the case as the results may not be that good.

    That Brazilian contact at 10:40, PY4GG, made a pretty cool arduino-based antenna rotator. Looks like he had plans to market it but doesn't seem to have happened. Check it out on his RUclips channel "Alexandre Zerbeto PY4GG".

    I talked to a guy name Bud? W3FF, he talked a little about the buddy pole hex beam a little bit, using his tri bike, i was a little disappointed in your video I thought you would talk more about it, and setting it up.

    • @HamRadioTV

      We will have future videos. The Buddihex is still a prototype and will do a more in-depth video once it's finalized for mas production.
