Just 900 more subscribers and Im giving away that new Elecraft KX2. Help a
fellow ham out and subscribe today. It’s Halloween and you’ve never seen a
ham radio show like this one before. This week I’m re reviewing the
Alexloop Walkham Magnetic loop antenna. Next time, I’m shooting out with
the big three loops. I’ve got a short update on my Kenwood TH-D74a and…
well, Ask Bob Anything.

The Team at RemoteHamRadio.com installed two rotating towers on the Ocean
in Maine last week and during this period some cool drone footage was
taken. Watch this High Definition drone footage as crane lifts a GXP 16
element tribander into place for Ray W2RE to attach to tower. Be sure to
open in full screen, video is high def.
