I have recently discovered the thrill of "aeronautical mobile" on 2m FM using a handheld. Line of sight has an entirely different meaning at 8000 feet in unobstructed air!
I would dearly love to figure out how to operate HF (20 meters) while flying a small general aviation single-engine aircraft. Haven't figure out a workable antenna solution that doesn't require airframe modification, etc. I thought about a Zepp like the old days, but at 180+ mph that is probably not workable. 73 de K1AY On Sat, May 26, 2018 at 12:29 AM, Wayne Burdick <[email protected]> wrote: > Many of us combine our affinity for radio with other activities we’re > equally passionate about — perhaps more.
