- I made this video for my buddy who just bought a Mountain Topper MTR-4B qrp transceiver. If you're new to portable ops, I find Thomas' RUclips videos and his QPRer website to be very informative:

Here is a link to his article on coax (the horror story one):

I have lots of videos using various portable radios and antennas. There might be something helpful there, too.
72 and see you on the air
VERY nice! I'm an MTR4B owner as well. Just goes to show that you don't need much to get on the air.
Great video overview. You have a nice collection of rigs!

Good Morning. I have the talent cell on order for the MTR-4B but I wanted to ask you will the bioenno BLF-0910W work for the MT? I am not very smart when it comes to the voltage and amps issue but, I wanted to make sure this battery would work also. Thank You
Yes it will work. Your output will be lower because it’s only 9 volts but it will work and some ops like to use 9 volt batteries. Ron
@@ve3sif Thank you Ron. Thanks to you I am almost setup to listen and maybe try some of the SKCC Special Events. Thank You
Ron, the power poles that you attached to the leads, is that connecting to the power cord that came with the radio? I assume you will put power poles on that cord correct? What size are the power poles you used? The power cord that came with the MT is really small wire. Thank You
@@janiceemery2008 Hi Janice, I used what I had, which were these from Amazon: CESFONJER Powerpole Quick Connect Battery Connectors - 10 Pair Quick Disconnect 30A 600V Power Connector Battery Plug+terminals Red Black
Note that when I attach powerpole connectors, I solder them, not just crimp them, 73 Ron
