I’ve been waiting for a description of that mystery chameleon product for months!

Just waiting for the green light to release the full video on all the new products.

[@HOAHamRadio]

@@timothygardner9199 I'm guessing withing 1 - 2 weeks. Stay tuned to the HOA Ham channel, as soon as Chameleon has this in stock I'll release a video demonstrating the Blank Adapter along with a few other new items.

Good afternoon Bob. I just enjoyed another high quality and informative video of yours. Keep up the great work...

[@HOAHamRadio]

Thank you, I appreciate that!

[@norm_sueb122]

Glad to hear you weren't affected by the hurricane.

[@HOAHamRadio]

All good here, thanks for stopping by for a look.

[@RESlusher]

God stuff as always, Bob! Glad y'all made it through the storms OK. Somebody in Florida must not be living right! 😉

[@HOAHamRadio]

I try! We are relieved physically, and still recovering emotionally. Thanks for the view and comment!

It looks like you got a QSO with Ft McMurdo in Antarctica. True? I am a retired NASA engineer and have worked with a mission using a ground station at McMurdo.

[@HOAHamRadio]

I've been heard a few times by that station using WSPR. That always makes me smile a bit.

until a neighbor snitches on you, then you have to remove it LOL

[@aarongriffin81]

What kind of neighbor cares that you have a little thing like that on your property? HOAs suck

[@HOAHamRadio]

My neighbors like me, and they stay out of my yard : )

[@BanditsBest686]

@@HOAHamRadio super lucky guy, usually/stereotype is in HOAs everyones a busy body snooping in each others business

[@iu1olr]

but any good ideas for those who live in concrete buildings and only have small balconies or terraces where it is not easy to manage radials?!

[@coreyjenkins7373]

Mag loops. But build your own. Hardline coax or copper tubing works best

[@HOAHamRadio]

I don't have that use case so I have no personal experience. I have repeatedly seen others respond with recommending mag loop antennas.

[@jeffvanburen1167]

Do you need a grounding rod

[@HOAHamRadio]

Portable antennas for temporary (hours) operations use temporary ground radials in favorable weather conditions. Permanent / semi-permanent installations should have proper bonding and grounding (ground rod). I do. This antenna is feeding into my single entry utility box which has all my grounding / bonding.

Great video! de W2CSI

Thanks for the encouragement!
