As Mrs. Doubtfire might say #amateurradio #hamradio #hfbands were "Wicked, Wicked, Wicked" due to #geomagneticstorm but at least I could test recent #km4cft 9:1 unun build & #randomwire with @youkits #hb1b into ATU-10 Autotuner on a beautiful 1st full day of Spring in the U.S.

It may be cumbersome and require me to get up and lower/raise to change bands, BUT .. this #linkeddipole antenna performs efficiently with my #YouKitsHB1B #HB1B with a SWR of 1.2:1 or lower on the CW #MorseCode portion of the #AmateurRadio #HamRadio bands on 40, 30, 20, 17 and 15 meters.

Peaked out of hibernation for a quick #hamradio #amateurradio CW #morsecode #qrp #pota #parksontheair activation with my #hb1b into #linkeddipole

Due to sub freezing temperatures and wind chill, it was a 12 in 15 minutes #hamradio #amateurradio CW #morsecode #qrpradio #hb1b #pota #parksontheair activation.

HUGE grin for today's Early Bird #hamradio #morsecode CW #parksontheair #pota activation because #radioblackout produced 20m opening into VK land using @Youkits #hb1b with 4040-10m #EFHW antenna up 35feet. #amateurradio is AWESOME BABY
