Thanks!

I really enjoyed watching this. It looked like a real hanfesr and not a convention. W4ZWE.

[@CarlottaAlotta]

Very cool . Thanks

[@MrFreddarama]

Very nice video. I enjoyed the scenery and the music and I like your radio setups. Looks great. Our local group has lots of CB, GMRS, and commercial operators in addition to a few hamsters that like to have fun :)

[@ScuffedRadio]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

Really good editing, man. Copyright free music is hard to find. And a drone is something I've been thinking about, too, for a while. Was that your footage or stock footage? And I've never been to a hamfest. Where do you find out where and when they are?

[@ScuffedRadio]

Some of the music wasn't copyright free, but that's okay for me. The "drone" video was actually a Google earth rendering of the fairgrounds where the hamfest was held. I do however have a drone capable of replicating those angles, I just didn't think to bring it! I found out about this hamfest from some friends of mine who knew about it already. The best way to find out is to simply do a web search for "hamfest near me" or something like that.

@@ScuffedRadio Awesome job either way. I need to step up my game.

[@ScuffedRadio]

@@GiantSequoiaNation Thanks! It's a lot of fun making these videos.

You do know you could have ordered that same rady from copper electronics they would have peaked and tuned it it would have been a lot cheaper then what you paid at that Ham fest

[@ScuffedRadio]

I didn't know that lol but I didn't come looking for an amazing deal... I came looking for a NW cobra and I got it

@@ScuffedRadio cool too bad you don't live in Knoxville Tennessee there is a guy up at the cb shop in the Petro truck stop on watt road he goes by jersey he is a really good cb technician

[@mattpace5982]

Once again you could have ordered a linear from rooster cb he has a KZbin channel you would have gotten a linear cheaper then what you have paid at that Ham fest

[@ScuffedRadio]

That's not a CB linear... thats a VHF linear
