  • Hey Steve, Sad to hear you and the boys need a break but I know what ya mean! I'm just now( its been over a year since my last QSO) able to start building another rig and I have a new interest in the hobby and some better health. I hope to hear from you and the boys sometime soon! Great Vid BTW! 73

  • I tend to do nothing but ham radio and at times I do need a break as you say to chop wood, think and walk my daft dog. You have shared a lot now its time to be lil selfish, you deserve it

  • Just wanted to let you know I like your videos. Please keep them comming. I am a Tech class and going to take my general in a few weeks. I took my tech with use of a podcast. General is a bit different. 73's KF5CVP

  • Steve, I love your videos as I said before. Peanut & Roosters are a couple of 'elmers' to me after watching you guys for last couple of years. I still hope to QSO with you one day.

  • Thanks for all the great videos Rooster & Peanut.. oh yeah, and Steve. I should really get my act together and get my CW up to speed! 73 and thanks for the inspiration. Hope to meet you on air some day. 73 - David - M0ZLI

  • I look forward to your return. Your videos along with a few others have encouraged me to get off my butt and try some DX. I am going to start slow with 6m and 10m but after I upgrade to general I hope to stay on 20m. Hope to talk with you one day. KB1LID

  • Wow, Hams have a big world! Great video and enjoyed watching it here in Chiang Mai Thailand! -73 de KJ7AQ

  • great videos

  • Nice video. I kinda like things that end. The Office (british version) had the sense to not continue forever. Movies end, the Mona Lisa--was painted once. Cheers, Steve.

  • Thank's for the SOTA inspiration!

  • Always enjoyable Steve. Ice fishing is time well spent too! So is (as I've discovered) geocaching. Wonder if R&P would watch the tip-ups? I had an old bassett mix that used to watch bobbers and whine when they went down. He was my fishn' pal for a lot of years :) 73 and CU on the bands - Scott N0AR

  • I got my license and callsign, still can't do anythign, don't have a radio. Hey, maybe for christmas. :3

  • Thumbs up for the final b/w goat scene.

    73, tu fer ufb vids

  • Great videos! Love the goats. 73 Chuck W7AUM

  • Said it before, will say it again... your home-made videos are some of the best on youtube. I truly believe you are helping to breathe (more!) life into ham radio. Enjoy your break! 73 - KD5NSD

  • Man, I check YouTube EVERY day with fingers crossed for a new goathiker video. I'll miss them but hopefully warm spring weather will bring new adventures. Thanks for all the fun videos, Steve.

  • Steve, first congratulations on a fine "last" video. Take the needed break, re-invent yourself into whatever comes next. You're an inspiration to me and I know to many others, too.

    Thanks for everything. Keep climbing!

  • You are part of the reason I got my ham ticket! I am currently shopping for camping gear and going to begin taking my 4 year old son outdoors. Thanks for your inspiration and I hope to talk with you on the air. Look forward to you videos in the future.

  • Hi Steve,

    Your videos are precious.

    They are perfect and inspiring.

    I love see them.

  • You have the very best ham radio YouTube videos!!!

  • You take a well earned rest Steve, Mind you R&P have put some leg work in too! As them sunspots improve I am all ears.

    Sean M0GIA

  • Nice contacts. :D I'm still waiting to get my license and callsign from the FCC. Its been over a week, but then again it is the holiday season. Anyone have any ideas when I might get it? I got it on Friday the 19th.

  • Hello Steve.

    Thank you for this genial video.

    I hope to meet you on the air.

    Best 73 to you, R&P

    de Fred

  • Great, as always.

    !!Este video es muy bueno, buenissimo!!

  • You got some good ones, there, Steve. congrats on a successful hike!

  • Great job, Steve!

    Really enjoyable.

    I'm planning to do some XC-ski this year also, there's a (soon to be published) SOTA summit near here which is only accessible via XC-ski trail, so there's my motivation for learning to "ski uphill".

    SOTA is good practice for ice fishing... if you can sit still on a mountain top in the wind and cold for hours without developing pneumonia, then sitting in an ice shack is a walk in the park.

    73!

    Martin.

  • Steve -- Another great video! I look forward to working you on the air again. 73, Tim N9PUZ.

  • Don't forget to come back Steve, we'll miss you.

    Enjoy your break

  • Great Video as always Steve! Bravo Bravo! US SOTA day was great! I didnt have much time on my summit due to the length of travel required to get in and out, but for that hour, it was a nonstop pile up! Felt great. Enjoy the break.

  • Hi Old Goats,

    Again congratulation for your video, and hope that you enjoy your rest on video edition and if you come back one day sure will be as good as now.

    73, ESteve EB3EPR

  • Steve, in that case, I can't wait for spring. Greetings to the boys.

  • Hello Peanuts & Rooster.

    As usual you are so pretty. Maya send you her greatest regards ;-))

    Steve, let me know about your new VX8g... How it is ? What's more than the VX8e ?

  • Steve,

    I just wanted to say a heartfelt, Thank You! to you and the young Goats :)

    It was you & the goats got me working QRP Im in a wheelchair these days vids even got my XYL interested in Ham too.

    Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas and get some time off but also hope one day in the not two distant future you are back at it again.

    Would agree if you make this series for sale I would buy it in a heartbeat.

    73 de David, KJ6GLX

  • Steve-Hope all is well on that end. Enjoy your time off and hope to "see" you all soon!

  • Great videos, but I well understand the need to take a breather. I've been inactive for a while but your vids have given me the bug again.

    And what better time! -20 here. Excellent antenna weather ;)

    Hope to work you sometime.

  • Sure gonna miss the cool video's :-(

    Take care OM,

  • Sorry about back to back comments but I have an idea. Maybe you could package these videos and add some content that never aired. Or maybe you could do a best of with new commentary. Then make it available for sale on DVD and downloadable on I Tunes. I know I would purchase it and I'm sure you could pick up alot of goat feed for the boys.

  • Very nice! I'd hoped to do some portable operating while the weather was nice over the previous months. Kept putting it off, etc.

  • Another Great Video Steve. Thanks,

    WA0DTH

  • These videos are awesome and inspiring Steve. I so hope you can get re-inspired to do more at some point. It's been fun watching you and the boys play as well as seeing your video editing skills go from great to awesome. Either way, thank you all so much. Hope to see you three on the air soon. Best 73 for now. Tim KB2RMC

  • Last?? Hope not
