Goat hiker- Awesome venture there. What frequency do HF Pack Operations use? You have sparked my interest. Bill WJ2L/4

That is just too cool of a video. Makes me wish I could grab a radio and be there with you and the goats! Fantastic scenery, great contacts and great companions. 73, Steve KJ4KKI EM66 KY

Hi, very nice vid ! :)

But got a question, i saw ki0pf carrying an old SEL made german army SEM 35 tranceiver, i own two of these, but i can't find the original antenna... absolutely nowhere :\

So maybe you or one of your friends could help me out and give me some advice where to get one.

[hamrite]

@spielhahnjaeger Europe has quite a few sem35 antennas. Helmut Singer Electonics in Germany, Carm38 french mil. radio provider....

[DAILEYericCaryUSA]

What a circle jerk. Do you guys do anything meaningful or just blab like a bunch of school girls?

[sig374]

Another great inspirational video that is going to make me take my FT-817 on my next back packing trip.

Thanks,

I can't get enough of these QRP hike videos, well done. k5clc

[Schoenberg12]

The goats are too much. Enjoyed our QRP QSO btw.

[technogearhead]

I love that they have a pic or video during the QSO.

[Morningfeather]

Wow! What fun! For me, the best part was when the goat looked into the camera and 'said', 5 Watts? That was hilarious! I'm going for my exam Friday to upgrade to general. Now I can hardly wait! The video really showed the sense of adventure and discovery that I find in ham radio. Were these contacts prearranged or was it a net? Let me know, I may be trying to reach you in a month or two on your next mountaintop expedition.

[goathiker]

GL on you test!! QSOs were just the luck of who was out there listen? It's part of the magic of ham radio you never know who you're gone to make contact with! But doing it someplace adventurous makes it all the sweeter! Have FUN! Steve/R&P

[Morningfeather]

I did hear the "HFPack" in the very beginning of the video and found the HFPack website. What fun! I'll join the group as soon as I get my general callsign.

[uromov]

i love your Rooster & Peanut

[wastemanagement007]

What a brilliant video! I love these QRP videos! what video camera support arm do you use? I felt really relaxed after watching that, and a Cherry on top nice one. I really like the way you get the QSL pictures of the amatuers and where they are, excellent job! helps to get out of the city once a week, 95% done on my QRP setup. love to those goats ;)

[KC8YOQ]

Cant walk all the time! When you stop where do you sit/ I am looking to take a small table and chair with me. Do you have any ideas?

[n9ohw]

FB Steve! Great showing on SSB on Herman. Sorry I missed you this time. I hope to work you on voice with my FT-817 and Buddipole next time you're up there. Fun video!  73 Mike N9OHW

[K7AGE]
