Experimenting with different configurations of 40 - 15 meter #linkedefhw with #qrpguys mini tuner while hunting #parksontheair #pota #sota #summitsontheair and #DX into Europe. Due to #geomagneticstorm from Earth facing #coronalhole #hfbands were noisy. #solarcycle25 #spaceweather #spacewx

Paired the @Youkits #hb1b with the #qrpguys Mini Tuner into a 40-15 #linkedefhw for the Early Bird #morsecode #cw #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair activation. The #hfbands are starting to change a bit #QSB with noise.

Its "UGLY", a tad bit "Bulky", but its is lightweight and I can't say enough of how the #QRPGuys #MiniTuner works with my DIY #LinkedEFHW. Worked the "EXTRA" portion of the #CW #MorseCode 20m band during Early Bird #CW #POTA #parksontheair and got into Central/SUR America. WORKS

It was an Early Bird #morsecode #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair activation with the Peanut Butter and Jelly #cw #hb1b #qrpguys mini tuner combo. Worked out well with 40 contacts on 40,30 and 20 meters

Shocked! Surprised! Grateful! That's my description of the #QRPGuys #MiniTuner. Fine piece of #AmateurRadio #HamRadio equipment to add to my #HamonaBike operating. No problems getting 1.1:! match on 40,30,20,17,and 15 meters. AWESOME!

Had plenty of company for the Early Bird #pota #parksontheair activation today. Got 20 #morsecode #cw contacts on 40 meters before conditions waned. #qrpguys mini tuner #hb1b combo did the job. #amateurradio #hamradio

I built a #QRPGuys 40-10 #Minituner a few years ago but never built a wire for it. Thanks to current #Geomagneticstorm conditions, I built a 40 -15 Meter Linked #EFHW that I can use with my #Youkits #HB1B and my #QRPlabs #QDX. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio is so much fun!
