I visited Clinton Lake (US-4093) on Memorial Day for a successful POTA activation. Not too shabby for 5 watts and a magnetic loop antenna! Had a pulsing S9 noise to deal with but the FT8 still came through.

After my previous video about the Icom 705 repeater list, I received a question on how to get both FM and D-STAR repeaters into the radio. I made a follow-up video on how I was able to import the data from Repeater Book. Hope it helps!
