The third in a series of videos showing my exploits with a DX Commander Expedition HF Multi-Band Antenna. In Parts 1 & 2 we saw the build and tuning of this antenna. In Part 3 we go up into the North York Moors National Park to gain some height and hopefully get away from some of the urban background noise.
Is it a success? What’s the background noise like? Do we even manage to make any contacts??? You decide…
This is just one video in a set of practical themed amateur/ham radio videos on this channel. Part 1 can be seen at https://youtu.be/fAeI-se3KAM and Part 2 at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoApJJxF_XY&t=3s
Now available, Part 4, Working /P by the Sea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnLKjQrvbNg
There are other amateur/ham radio related videos on this ianxfs channel. Feel free to browse and subscribe 👍🏻
I hope you find all the videos useful!
