Today I’m taking on a challenge: can you build a complete HF ham radio go-kit using only products from Amazon? That means the radio, power system, antenna, backpack, and everything in between—no hamfest vendors, no specialty shops. Just Amazon.

I’ll walk you through what I bought, pack it all into a go-kit, and then take it out in the field to see if it actually works. Will it make contacts or flop? Let’s find out.

Don’t make the same mistake I did when buying a camper. What looked like a great deal turned into a nightmare — hidden wiring problems, unsafe conditions, and a whole lot of frustration.

If you’re shopping for a camper, RV, or trailer on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, or anywhere else, WATCH THIS before you hand over your cash.

Nexstar’s proposed $6.2 billion acquisition of Tegna could reshape the media landscape across the United States — and right here in Knoxville, Tennessee. With WATE Channel 6 (Nexstar) and WBIR Channel 10 (Tegna) serving the same market, the FCC has major decisions to make.

In this deep dive, we break down three possible scenarios:

1️⃣ Spin-Off — Either WATE or WBIR sold to another company.

2️⃣ Consolidation — FCC allows Nexstar to own both, merging operations.

3️⃣ Blocked Deal — The FCC shuts down the acquisition.

We’ll cover what each outcome could mean for local news, competition, jobs, and viewers in Knoxville and beyond.

⚡ Stay tuned until the end for what YOU should be watching as this deal moves forward.

We’re taking it back to the classics! In this video, I reveal our 1998 Starcraft Constellation pop-up camper — a vintage rig that’s ready for new adventures.

I’ll walk you through the camper’s layout, features, and condition, plus share why I chose this specific model. This Starcraft Constellation may be from the late ‘90s, but it’s built tough and has plenty of life left for road trips, hamfests, and family camping.

What do you think — hidden gem or money pit? Let me know in the comments!

Tokyo Hamfair 2025 brought us a welcome evolution of a ham classic: the Icom IC‑7300 MK2. More than just a cosmetic refresh, it builds on proven SDR pedigree with these substantial upgrades:

Improved RMDR (~105 dB) for cleaner reception in crowded bands.

Built‑in CW decode, no external decoder needed.

HDMI video output—hook it to a big screen for real‑time spectrum and waterfall viewing.

USB‑C port for modern connectivity.

Ethernet hub onboard—remote control and networking made easier.

SMA connectors on the RX chain—add your own external filters or antennas.

This isn’t a gimmicky facelift. It’s an operator‑friendly evolution built around real world needs. More horsepower, better UX, modern ports—without throwing away what made the original IC‑7300 a go‑to station rig.

Drop your thoughts—are these upgrades enough to upgrade your shack?
