In this episode, I'm joined by my friend Deacon Bradley (N5JOV), a friend who has had his amateur radio license since 2020. Deacon shares his journey into amateur radio and why he chose the Yaesu FT-60 as his first radio.
The conversation then shifts to the world of digital radio options such as Yaesu's Fusion, Icom's D-STAR, and the open DMR protocol.
Deacon also shares his personal experiences in Summits on the Air (SOTA).
Additionally, we discussed the importance of amateur radio in emergency communications, with Deacon recounting his experiences during a severe ice storm in Texas. He highlights the role of local radio clubs and their connections to emergency management departments, showcasing the vital role hams can play in times of crisis.
Deacon shared his preference for the ED-Fong J-pole antenna. (See link below)
