Ham radio Go Box / GoBox in Pelican 1450 - Pt 1

[@michaeltuber4036]

This is the most simple go box I've seen! Thank you so much. Awesome box!

[@RookieLock]

Very Nice ! I'm currently working on my own go box.. Thank you for the inspiration !

ok I have a dumb question. You said you had to be careful turning it on because there was no antenna connected, what could happen?

[@danpass12]

Thanks!

How long can you run on that 18ah SLA?

[@danpass12]

Like everything ham related ... it depends. The radio can be set to 5w, 10, 25 or 75. 25w seems to be the sweet spot for power and longevity. About 4 hours on a 40% duty cycle.

do you have part 2 video?

[@danpass12]

I don't. But I will :D. Maybe next weekend.

danpass12 I sooooo dig that kit! I'm thinking I'm going to HAVE to build one for my Yaesu FT-8900R. Did you ever get around to shooting a Part 2 video? I'd LOVE to see the finished product! I'm not plugging my channel; but take a look at mine. I used cutting boards for shelves in my HF station-in-a-box!

Duct tape? Really?
