Many thanks Alvaro. I can't wait to start doing more videos after lockdown I have missed going out portable so much. I still work WWFF from home but not the same as being outdoor. Best 73

Great video but I'm super curious why some amateurs use non phonetics in their calls signs? Not a criticism - just curious.

Hi James, I know what you mean as some people make up different ways of saying there call sine like peter queen Jonny for the suffix. People always get the last letter of my call sign wrong, I end up repeating several times lol

Ft 891? Ft 817 I think you meant to say. Im assuming you have one of those also? Anyway thanks for sharing your experiences. They help me along my journey. 73 My friend
