Putting up your first tower............contact DirtNasty.
Working the world with 100 watts and a wire in your attic.......Contact Hank Ellis. Maritime Mobile and Air Mobile stations......don't know who to call. Expensive radios, antennas, and amps....they deserve equal time. 
Want to start an argument? Do a show on soldering vs crimping.

This could be a great topic for discussion. I've done a lot of this while taking trips on my dual-sport motorbike. SCWOLVERINE, where is the link to the first podcast?

Portable digital mode operation using a tablet, with specific info on apps and cables/hardware needed to use the tablet for signal encoding/decoding and rig control. I nominate elcope.  I'm still working on getting the iPad to "key" the radio for PSK, not having any luck so far and I know of no app that does rigcontrol, but I'd be happy to do a interview for a show, lord knows I've learned a lot about radio in the last year here. |

Pignology has several apps and hardware that will do Rig Control. With a KX3, it gives you access to the terminal window if you have one of their Piglet wifi to serial bridges. Still working on the waterfall functionality though. Check it out at pignology.net |

| This morning I installed the app PSKer on my iPhone and iPad, and have on order the KF5INZ Easy Digi interface, which should arrive this week. My plan is to try them next weekend while camping. If I get everything to work I'll be happy to share how I set it up. |
