Prepping Log4OM Software For POTA Activation - What you need and my Icom 7300

As you probably know I am using the Icom 7300 for my POTA activations. This video: Prepping Software For POTA Activation -
1. Choose a logging software - In this video I use Lo4OM. It is an excellent logging program and very easy to setup for POTA activations.
2. Configure the Gridsquare - Find your gridsquare by using a popular phone app, Ham Square. Enter it into Log4om. You may also enter the city state and county. I use another app for that in the video.
3. Other software - I will be using WSJT-X and I want to put the correct grid in that software.
One of the best parts about being a ham operator is being able to talk to other like-minded people all over the world. There are many options for mobile ham operators, whether you're looking for a ruggedized, self-contained package that operates on battery power or something that runs on 12 volts and is more easily mounted in your vehicle.
I'm an Amateur Radio enthusiast. I love the hobby and experimenting with radios, antennas and software. I have a lot of fun. On my KZbin channel I upload videos mostly on the Icom 7300 and Icom 7610 as well as Ham Radio software programs. I hope to inspire people to get involved in Amateur Radio.
