What a great adventure! Videos like these always keep me motivated.
I bought a pretty basic safety razor from maggard about 10 years ago and still love it. The biggest thing to learn and invest in is what blades and lather you like. I started off buying a blade sampler pack from them and settled on astra blades. i’ll change up my lather/soap sometimes. Also a nice brush is good to have.
I’d also suggest trying a crypto currency community for help. This is amateur radio and hiking ;)
I plan on activating all 4 days. I’ll look to the PNW!
Ha I have almost the same story. Grandfather talking to people on his radio all day, missing dinner, and my grandma getting mad at him. He’s one of the reasons I got into ham radio! Thanks for sharing your story!
Nice setup but the big question is what kind of dip did you use on them chips?
It goes in the pack. I like to pack stuff in the bottle holder because it provides some cushion/protection.
Also reminds me the pack holds a 2L water camel bag inside as well
If the talking isn’t what you’re interested in:
There’s also digital modes that let your computer do all of the talking through your radio.
Morse code(cw) where you’re not talking so-to-speak, but dit’in and dah’in at someone else.
APRS for geolocation and also a few other messaging services.
Also the fun of building new things.
That urge for a new radio for me looks like comparison hypnosis or rabbit holing.
I’ll see someone post on here/mastodon about a new radio or technology. Then I start checking out the specs. Then I start checking the specs of similar items. On to deciding if I need the newest model though because it has a few more features that I “need”. Oh wait, the other thing has a better this or that.
4 hours later, I have my credit card out and about to check out and then it dawns on me:
Oh wait, do I actually need this?
…yes. Of course. SWIPE
Also the 7300 is great. Congrats and nice find in Japan.
I do enjoy my morserino-32. It was an educational experience to build and it has definitely helped my cw comprehension
