Ham Radio Emergency Communication Trailer

[multimedian]

@m0jha because in the USA they have many more natural disasters / extreme weather. The US ARES and other bodies provide vital comms during such times. The need is far greater than that of RAEN/RAYNET here in the UK.

Can I come join your club and play in your sandbox? My sandbox in not as nice as yours! hi hi Next is the solar panels and battery bank with a nice sine wave inverter! Most ham rigs have DC current! The solar power would be a great addition to your MCU! In Helena Mt we use a 1980's Fleetwood Prowler with an Icom 706 and a tiny 3W solar system! I like yours better! Nice video! AR SK ..

@KE7RIP Hi Jason, sorry for the delay . . . seldom had the chance to check the comments. . . We use a generator for power during setup in remote locations.

very nice set up, but would it not be better to have made the mast counter ballanced as you wont be useing it under a nice blue sky every time, all it would need is to be quickly pulled down and you would be back into the trailer out of the weather, anyway nice setup.

@b0lliks Hi there! - yes we thought about that too, but we decided not to cut the tower in order to get it counter balanced. We also use the Emcomm during DX contest and since the 2 element quad is kind a heavy we need a winch to help put it in the correct angle.
