Yeah it's fun spotting a radio when watching a show or movie. Frustrates me though when they show the back of the radio and there's no antenna plugged in at all.

Just watched this week's episode of NCIS (S23 E16) titled S.O.S. and noticed the park rangers using what appeared to be a Kenwood TS-570 to talk to someone. They were on 20 meters though they were transmitting voice in the CW part of the band. #hamradio #ncis
I made a video on the RAKwireless WisMesh Tag node. Let me know if you have any questions.

I upgraded my T-Echo battery this evening from 850mAh to the 3000mAh model using the kit from Rokland. Pretty simple though my iFixIt screwdriver wasn't quite thin enough to fully tighten the screws. It's a bit chunky and heavier now but it's my car node so not a big deal. #meshtastic
I put together a tutorial on turning your Icom 705 into a portable APRS digipeater using a Raspberry Pi. Let me know if you have any questions.

I'm fairly new to #meshtastic, but I just chatted with someone for several minutes on a Southwest flight from Chicago to Dallas from my indoor node! There's not much coverage in my part of town so this was quite the treat for me!
Nice band conditions today. Hearing numerous weather radio frequencies in the car this morning. #HamRadio
