We love Suzanne, she has been at our last 2 Field Days in Utah mobilizing out from Texas. Sincerely love her K5UUU. Carl WE7OMG

I'm glad to hear she was able to attend again this year! Unfortunately I was unable to make it.

[@DK5ONV]

What an amazing Antenna System. Yup sure, the 5W are doing the Trick. The Scorpion Antenna is one of the Best Mobile Antennas. My Friend Rob M0KPD/m runs one and he is producing a HELLISH L O U D Signal no one is going to ignore. Good Job Suzanne, hope we can make our first Contact real soon. Happy Weekend into the Lone Star State & 73 de Uncle Günter 💯🙋‍♂

Great set-up !! Some innovative ideas !!

[@Gigler43]

Just discovered your channel via the KZbin Algorithm! What an awesome interview and you have an earned a new subscriber here. Thanks

[@ElectricTechAdventures]

Thanks! This is a pretty unique video on my channel as I don't interview people very often in general, but I do have a couple other videos on my channel going to the HAM radio field day and powering the radios from my RV solar panels and we use our HAM radios during our camping adventures, especially when we're out of cell phone reception. I publish videos about trips my family and I go on in our fully solar powered RV, trips in our electric vehicle, and also electric bikes. Hopefully you stick around!

Wow. I love your antenna. I’m a new ham and I really love this video. Very very helpful

Glad it was helpful!

Looks like a beautiful camping spot as well.

[@ElectricTechAdventures]

This is the same campsite as the other video you commented on. There are other dispersed camping areas around here too north of Strawberry reservoir.

[@K5BLA]

Thank you for the super-informative video!! Looks like a fiberglass trailer. Are you using any kind of ground radial system? Congratulations on a very successful setup making worldwide contacts!

[@ElectricTechAdventures]

Sorry I don't know if she has a ground radial system and I don't have any contact information for her. Perhaps she'll see this comment and chime in!
