OMG! The homage to the best movie EVER was awesome! "The...Ol Man......."

[@stuartoberdeen1793]

Mike, It was good seeing you, Josh, Jason, and Frank at Hamvention. In reference to Michigan-Ohio. I feel your pain when Alabama plays Ohio. K8STU. 73

Blues Brothers and Vacation quotes all in one road trip video. Good things are about to happen. 73. KE8DLE

[@stephanhersey1186]

Great! Love the road trips. Looking forward to you showing the Hamvention to those of us that can't make it.👍 Steve, k7ofg.

[@n1kkri]

Does anyone remember the "Far Out Amateur Radio Group" back in the 80's early 90s they had a repeater with very funny recordings welcoming people to the Hamvention.

[@robmccray6360]

Solid calls on the milk shakes.

[@DaveW6OOD]

Now that your getting used to APRS maybe you’ll be converted 😅(like QRO only to QRP sometimes). I’ll be watching this weekend to the whole YTBunch.

[@StephenSmith]

I was waiting for, "excuse me homes" and "Hey dad do you think these guys know the Commodores?". Fun video K7SPS

[@KI7JOM]

Pretty sure you can find Annapolis in Maryland too.

[@KG5RJR]

LOL Great code training there!!! dah dit dah!!!

[@MrStanwyck]

Good to see you were able to use APRS…. LOL. 😂Have a great time at Hamvention….

[@kb9qdi863]

[@heifitz9]

[@MikeB0001]

[@Ken-W1KAL]

[@stevegriffin9552]

Glad you got there safe now it’s time to have fun. Enjoy the hamfest! WD5ENH Steve

[@georgecappello9538]

I'll be on the road tomorrow in the wee hours.

[@R3dN3cK]

Hope to see y'all there! KO4CXD

[@Chuckwagon524]

If Fort Wayne is on your way back, I think you would appreciate a detour to stop at Sweetwater. It’s a musician’s candy store.

[@Aimsport-video]

One hand on the stick. One hand on the wheel. One hand on the horn. Italian Cabby Style. Be safe.

[@Matthew-KN4QHQ]

That is a first. I have never heard the Dallas theme song in Morse code. The dits and dahs did you well!

[@snowdiddley7390]

That looks like so much fun 73 guys KE8NKV

[@josephw8jxq137]

Nice touch with the elevator background music!

[@bb_37]

Weird that the Googly Map thing routed you through the home of Oklas. I just did a route from Dallas to Xenia and it went through Little Rock, Louisville, etc. Disappointed that you went through Indianapolis and didn't stop to say "hi", but I'm used to rejection from famous people.

[@kb9liq]

On that trip you would have been just about 45 mins south of me in IL. Disappointed you did not recreate the first ones here part of your arrival at walley world, I mean xenia

[@preppie478]

I hear they call those "APRS fries" in some places....

[@AdamSWL]

Gees Mike, you look like you could use a coolin'! Looking forward to when you pick up Aunt Edna on the way home.

[@hamradiotube]

Lol.

[@CC58]

A Braums must: chicken club sandwich with a butter pecan shake. Fuel you for a day.

[@william_k4arx]

Metropolis is the home of Superman.

[@richardriggs5036]

Dallas theme in Morse code...lol

[@de_w8tam]

What did I just watch?!

[@KC2BKM]

What are you saying!? Crinkle cut fries are the best!

[@hamradiotube]

Said no one ever

[@paulaubuchon2336]

Safe trip... Paul K1YOU

[@FrankTheTank]

I was really enjoying the video tyring you needed to disarm. then i whipped from the lost of our FREEDOMS. HOW dare they disfreedom you. WAVE YOUR FREDDOM AROUND EVERY chance you get.

[@jmollo55]

Dallas all in dits and das ... lol

[@DaveW6OOD]

…and the APRS is ON ?!!!?

[@paulaubuchon2336]

I have been in the ARC PAUL K1YOU

[@nc4tn]

See you there! Stopping at Casey's for pizza and fill up with gas.

[@andrewfiertek5937]

Why is it that Jason won't let you drive and take a break from being the chauffeur ?

[@william_k4arx]

I see you survived New Palestine as you crossed the state line into Ohio. You breathing easy?

[@peteknapp8940]

Sorry folks, Hamvention is closed. Moose out front should've told you....

[@Wastin_Time]

lol Illinois is a joke, I live here...

[@douglofreddo7886]

G26?

[@chrisazure1624]

Take the challenge. Only sleep in seedy motels document your adventure.

[@gallonsofhairspray5451]

It is because you ham harder! Lol

[@ghostmandka5498]

Thats nothing.....I just did 2,600 miles! And thats the reason I'm not driving to Xenia LOL!

[@Matt-KG7JQH]

Missouri is pronounced "Misery"

[@miket7184]

I'm going to Hamvention this year, and not driving through Illinois (I'm in southern Arizona). I'm too lazy to get out and unload my pistol just to travel through a 2nd amendment hostile state. Besides, I wouldn't stop there anyway as I don't want to contribute to their economy!

[@hamradiotube]

Smart move.

[@Dennis_856]

You really need to go into comedy lol

[@hamradiotube]

I’m just waiting on my call from Hollywood.

[@rj44319]

I hate having to lose rights due to "feelings"

[@fpmacko]

I enjoyed this a bunch until you waved your gun in my face. I understand your position on that amendment but was this really necessary? What did that have to do with ham radio? Standing by for the flames.

[@hamradiotube]

You must live in Illinois.

[@fpmacko]

@@hamradiotube No, and please don’t belittle me. (That remark was flippant and ill-mannered.) Look at it this way…what if a fellow ham had lost a loved one to gun violence and all of a sudden you wave your Glock in his face? How would you explain your “freedom” to them? I enjoy your channel but please consider the effect of your actions. WA3NHK

[@miket7184]

@@hamradiotube MD - Like there's a difference. Another 2nd amendment hostile state where guns cause violence, not people!

[@miket7184]

How can he 'wave a gun in my face' when he's a thousand miles or so away from you coming through the internet on a video? And his gun is disassembled! If you've ever watched TV or a movie, someone somewhere waved a gun in your face!

[@gliderrider]

I saw you on ft8! Tried to work you from SD on my new FX-4RC and cheap new android AO3, while you were at that park in OK. Had one chance and you were gone. Pretty cool though as I usually use cw and you usually use ssb. Next time! You guys have fun out there! De n5vwn
