N4HNH Radio - Invidious

N4HNH Radio

This is a channel dedicated to amateur radio. Most of the videos focus on operating techniques that maximize the features of modern transceivers. You can combine various features in order to accomplish greater things than any one feature might accomplish on its own. I demonstrate these techniques during actual operating conditions. Other topics, including portable operation, antennas, HF linear amplifiers, microphones, radio wave propagation, and more, are also explored on this channel.

I happen to own Yaesu, ICOM, and Kenwood radios, but I tend to teach with the Yaesu radios because they tend to perform the best overall. But the operating techniques I teach can apply to almost any radio, from any manufacturer.

I have no official relationship with any manufacturer. No company makes a perfect radio. I point out the good, the bad, and the ugly, so you can decide which equipment best fits your needs.

Include your callsign if you comment and want a response.
