The "Cheapest Go-Kit" on Youtube? -- Operating the uSDR at the Park HD
Showing off the cheapest ham radio go-kit on youtube and then taking it out to the local park to give it a try. This go-kit consists of a uSDR transceiver, a Rugged Nano Dipole from N9SAB on Ebay, a Talentcell 6000mAH battery pack, and RG-174 coax. The antenna is supported using a telescoping bamboo crappie pole from Amazon. You may be skeptical of this radio, but this actually works! Visit my webpage at http://www.kk4div.com for more content.
