I copied Paul/W0RW/pm today while in my barn/shop on the FT817 and made a recording. Added some photos etc. He was operating his PRC-74 Backpack MilPack while hiking through Garden of the Gods in Colorado Spring, CO
Yep my wife's horses have a hot wire around their corral. Sometimes I go out and flip the switch to kill that pulse noise but my brain filters it out most of the time. 73, Steve
