It is fun livestreaming FT8 contacts when the bands are open, especially on the bands like 10-meters that don't get used as often. I have been working FT8 for the passed few days on 10M, 15M and 17M and I thought it would make for a fun livestream to do some of this again. Join me for the lunchtime livestream today and we will see if 10M is still open! If not, we will go back to 15M, which has been really hot lately also.

Bioenno is one of the top-name brands of batteries in the Ham Radio world today, but for other niches also. The largest external battery that you can carry in a carry-on bag on an airplane is 160wh so this 144wh battery fits the bill almost perfectly. Let's see how it performs on the CBA-V Software!
