On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly

based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from

listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -

KN6NWZ, Josh talks about a POTA/SOTA essential, Leah talks about her family’s survival history as refugees, and Josh talks about how he built his first dipole.

 

Have a drink with us! Today, we’re drinking… Dragon’s Milk White Bourbon Barrel Aged White Stout, Sleepy Dog Brewing Wet Snout Peanut Butter Stout and ARound the Bend Beer Company Vera Pistachio Cream Ale. Thanks BR N2SNF for the brews!

 

Josh has a short tip with the Ham Radio Minute: Josh makes a questionable suggestion for POTA and SOTA gear with a portable basic chair kit.
