Congratulations to Michael on his first POTA activation. He couldn't have a better teacher. Hope to hear him more. You can tell he was getting more relaxed toward the end. He did a great job. 73 de N6EF.
@@hamradiotube I second what John said. I've recently subscribed to your channel but I've been watching your videos for a few months now. I really enjoy all your videos, especially your different antenna videos. One of the local hams has really gotten active in POTA so I'm really getting interested in trying that. Appreciate what you're doing and hope to meet you on the air. 73 K4PLP
Let's hope so. We just put together his DX Commander Expedition last week so he doesn't have an excuse now. Our signals were going right over you that day unfortunately.
NICE! You broke him in smoothly and now you got yourself a POTA buddy just an arm's length away!! Congrats to you both!!! You blew me away with the Hungary contact! I think Spain and this one are your longest ever...Nice addition to your log!
Love the Hungary contact! My first POTA contact was Chile. I’m in North Carolina. Not bad for a Yaesu 891 and a Wolf River Coil antenna. But in all fairness I was at 5300 feet elevation. I think a clothes hanger would work that high. Great video!
My pleasure Gaptastic. It doesn't take much. Just get out there and call CQ POTA. Go at your own pace. Everyone will follow that. Remember, you are in control and everyone wants to work you. Don't be afraid to tell them to slow down or whatever you want. It's your activation.
This vid is so helpful for many who have wanted to try pota amd need some examples of what to do. Im still in my first year of pota'ing and i have some high anxiety for calling cq because the pileups make me nervous and i dont like dissapointing people who are trying to get in. Because of my hard of hearing (too many years in the music business) and my nervous dyslexia i feel like im too slow or too awkward when working pileups. Im sure ill out-grow that feeling, but for now 99% of my potas are me going to a park and hunting other activators or trying to make random contacts to make my minimum 10. I'm all SSB. Have not tried pota via ft8 or cw yet. Thanks for this helpful vid. Cheers and 73!
Great video. I have trouble remembering those received call signs. I have to work on that. I hope that I can get to doing POTA just because I don't go anywhere now. I know that the Mount Umunhum summit is a fav for SOTA around here and there is disabled parking at the summit for us mobility challenged hams. Maybe I can hit the road with the G90 before the year end. 73
Great video I really like laid back videos from hams where the person doing the video doesn’t talk too fast. Your videos and KB9VBR Michael’s videos are my favorite you tube Elmer videos. Thanks for posting. I will be doing my second POTA soon
Ive never tried POTA or SOTA activations as of yet, but since I am starting to get back into backpacking and camping I think I am going to try these out. Just ordered an X5105 to throw in my pack, but I’m not expecting very much out of a QRP radio from all the way out there in the middle of nowhere in Hawaii. Now I just have to figure out how to do all this, lol.
Well you had me excited until you said Hawaii. I know everyone in the world will want to work you thats for sure! Thats a tough state to get in the log for a lot of folks on the main land. You'll still have fun and i'm sure you'll make contacts. I love the X5105. It's a great little radio. The tuner will tune just about anything you throw at it too so a 9:1 antenna is great with it for all bands. I hope you have fun and maybe we'll catch you on the air. Could even be a Park to Park!
@@hamradiotube I waited until now to decide to dive into QRP because of the propagation issues and the sun cycle, but now that the solar activity is increasing it’s time to dive in with both feet. Is there such a thing as POTA for FT8? Even with poor conditions, I was able to attain the Worked All Continents award using that in about a week.
Hey Mike!!! Nice job elmering and pulling some poor helpless victim into the snake pit... You're gonna be hearing me soon! putting together a righteous antenna for POTA... 40 foot telescoper and a home brew coil for the tuing action... hopefully will be able to hear texas and put you in the log again! de KE8KW
Hi Mike, Wish I was home when received the HamAlert. Nicest way to show someone what POTA is all about. Hope Mike will work to get his license and congrats on that Hungary contact. Stay safe. 73 WJ3U
WOW! This is like the perfect example of exactly how to hook someone into ham radio. None of that "oh you gotta take this exam" or "well the HF bands are the frequencies of 3 to 30 MHz, which have very different propagation methods per frequency due to the effects of ionospheric refraction that is affected by various solar and geomagnetic blabhablabhablhablh." Nah man, just get their butt in front of a radio, show them the buttons to hit, and work freakin HUNGARY! Show the passion, the excitement, and the adrenaline of never knowing what's going to be on the other end. That's amazing dude. I'm gonna borrow this video for YOTA presentations.
I agree. This is what gets people into Amateur Radio. Not sure why everyone thinks digital is what is going to bring new people in. Now have them build their own antenna and work Hungary now that would do it.
Thanks Sterling. He already is a General, but yes, I agree with you. Just take them out and show what you can do. You never know what's going to happen. Take it low and slow, like TX BBQ. You have my blessing to use this video in however you see fit. Let me know if you need the actual file.
It's just so addicting. I'm a huge Antenna Nerd and I'm all about building my own antennas, but I'm just not doing that now. I fully support that though. My first DX contact was S57DX on a home brew fan dipole. I wish I had that on camera. You would have seen me dancing and screaming like a little girl lol! Actually, I'm glad it wasn't recorded lol!
Nice job, guys…after recently doing my first POTA activation, I can appreciate the nervousness…HAMRS helps a lot. Great teaching session! 73, Vic, KB7GL
Roger Roger ... or should I say, Mikey Mikey. Is he your long lost cousin? U dudes rock the same doo and black T. Good for you for paying it forward! POTA On HAMmers! 73 KJ6ER, Silicon Valley
@HamRadioTube, I am a technician and want to get a radio/setup to do; HF, APRS, CW and FT8. I would like to keep the total pkg around $1000. What would you recommend. Mostly doing POTA/SOTA. I am open to all suggestions, not just from Mike.
Starting my activating journey, looking for antenna, looking for easy deployment and take down. Will be primarily operating from bed of truck. Was considering mag mount and ham sticks. Can I get your opinion?
Mike you are a nut ! I love what you said about the other man being the new POTA DADDY. And y'all definitely look like twins . Keep up the great work. I can't wait until I get all my POTA stuff together and get on the radio. 73 AE4OY William Peacock EM-81UF SOUTH EAST GEORGIA (OLDYELLA)
Haha, thanks William. Gotta have fun. It doesn't take much to do a POTA. A radio, coax, some kind of power supply and an antenna is about all it takes. You'll pick up on other things you may want to bring as you get more comfortable. Go out in the back yard and set up. Thats a great way to practice. If you forget something, you can just walk back inside.
Oh he's made a few contacts with my G90 GoBox and the array of antennas we have up in the yards. Being out in the state parks where there is no noise floor is really what does it. Its hard at home as our noise floor is just obscene.
@@hamradiotube I really do enjoy your videos Mike and I hope 🤞 to meet you the next time you come down to Lake Livingston Park as I only live about 20 minutes drive away but I don’t drive that much anymore but I am going to try❗️ 73. KV5P
Hey Mike awesome video and you make a good Elmer and Michael did an excellent job on his 17 Contacts. And congratulations on the DX Contact that’s fantastic. WD5ENH Steve
I've never seen seen a voice record call out before. How is that setup? Would it work with an FT-817/818? Great video. Thanks also for introducing me to HAMRS! Lastly, Mike did great making his first contact. I remember having the butterflies in my voice from excitement when I made mine. Great Job, 73
just watched the hole video, mike its great what you did here, as first activations are very intimidating, and he picked it up by the 5th qso, great tuition mate👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@hamradiotube Actually, I am interested in getting a ham license but I don't understand all the "jargon" so to speak. So unfortunately when I watch videos about ham radio much of the time I have no clue what they are talking about.
Hi Mike your neighbour looks like your brother. Love the POTA videos just started the POTA bug in the last two weeks. I have a park right in my door step no word of a lie 500m in a straight line. It’s never been activated so this weekend it will be. Conningbrook Lakes Country Park G-0377 51.1532, 0.903518 (JO01kd) POTA has just reinvigorated me now in retirement to get out and see the countryside. Thanks.

Now POTA Baby can grow out his beard and you two can tell people you're twins.
POTA Baby! HAHA Love it!

I was just going to say they looked like brothers, not neighbors lol
So much info to share, glad you took it slow... leave him wanting more!
I hope he does!

Great stuff as always....Your bud did an excellent first activation.
Thanks Michael, yes he did.
NICE! You broke him in smoothly and now you got yourself a POTA buddy just an arm's length away!! Congrats to you both!!!
You blew me away with the Hungary contact! I think Spain and this one are your longest ever...Nice addition to your log!
He just needs to keep up with me on the trails now. I've gotten a couple Spain contacts lately but Hungary was a first. POTA is going world wide!
Love the Hungary contact! My first POTA contact was Chile. I’m in North Carolina. Not bad for a Yaesu 891 and a Wolf River Coil antenna.
But in all fairness I was at 5300 feet elevation. I think a clothes hanger would work that high.
Great video!
Thats awesome. I always love chasing DX and to get DX stations coming back to my POTA cq is amazing.

Two Mikes walk in to the woods with a radio.... sounds like a bad joke. Great activation though!
Haha yeah it does.
Way to pay it forward Mike! Looks like you fellows had a good day. I see you both go to the same barber....lol!
If he likes bourbon and good stogies sounds like a great ham friend.
Two Mikes! Thanks mate awesome activation
Can't have too many Mikes. 3 if you could the radio mic lol!
Congratulations. Well done.
Thank you so much 😀
I love the HAMRS logbook, except it never seems to map but about 50% of my contacts.
Great job with the first POTA! Can't wait to do mine. Mike makes it look so easy...clearly he's a pro. Thanks for the inspiring vid!
