PhilToday I made a joke commercial for my newly designed & printed EXTREME Ham Radio desktop accessory for the Ultimate Net Commander. The "UV-Commander", a #baofeng radio holder for all those extreme social nets discussing ham radio and antennas and bodily functions! #3dprinting #hamradio #uv5r #prepping #extremeweather Also fits #vx6r #yaesu and #ft5 #radio

Traveling with my #yaesu #ht #FT5 #HamRadio. bag was pulled off security conveyor belt and opened.
#TSA agent pulls out my #magnetic mount, 1/4 wave, dual band #2m / #70cm #antenna with the #coax wound around the base.
TSA agent: “what’s this?”
Me: “an antenna”
TSA agent to the agent running the X-ray: “it’s an antenna!”
I stuff it back in my bag and head to my gate. This is the first and only time this has happened.

August (K6AUG)Hello all, I'm K6AUG, operator August, technician class, from just south of San Francisco, CA USA. I'm a member of the SF Amateur Radio Club, #SFARC #W6PW, and formerly with the UC Santa Cruz Amateur Radio Club #K6SLG.
I recently upgraded to a #Yaesu #FT5 #FT5DR HT, so my latest fixation is #APRS beaconing, and finally getting a proper #antenna outfitted on my car, and possibly setting up a tx/rx #iGate.
