Thank you for choosing to download the
ham Radio two point zero audio podcast rip.

2
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:09.320
This is the audio taken out of
a video or a livestream I did

3
00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:13.279
recently. You can catch all my
videos on YouTube ham Radio two point zero

4
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:18.399
and catch us live every Sunday night
at seven pm Central Standard Time for a

5
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.519
different topic each week. Thank you
for the support, and thank you for

6
00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:35.840
being a member of the community.
I got it in. It arrived yesterday,

7
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:40.079
the Allocraft KH one with the Edgewood
package and all of the accessories that

8
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:42.920
come with that bunch of different things. We're gonna go through it right now,

9
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:49.719
all right, Once again, Ellocraft
came up with this new little handheld

10
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:53.200
transceiver called a KH one. This
is the size of it right here.

11
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.920
I put it all together last night. Am surprised at how small it is

12
00:00:57.200 --> 00:00:59.560
really. I mean, I knew
it was small. I knew it was

13
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.880
a handheld transceiver, but it's like
literally the size of a thing. Okay.

14
00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:04.719
It came with the Edgewood package,
came with all of this stuff.

15
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:10.439
It comes with this bag here,
very nice bag opens up like that.

16
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:15.719
Okay. It's got a zipper pouch
here on the top and inside the top

17
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.959
cover it's got a pouch there and
there on the outside, and then it's

18
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.040
got some straps out here. You
could put it on a belt loop like

19
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:25.680
that. You put it on a
belt loop that way, hold it that

20
00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:27.359
way, or hold it that way
if you wanted to. It's got an

21
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:32.159
extra place around here for a pin. Comes with this carabiner on top,

22
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:34.879
and then another pin or maybe an
intent or something like that over there.

23
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.120
You put their KX one in there. I guess if you wanted to a

24
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:38.599
neat little bag, I really like
that. I'm kind of a sucker for

25
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.840
bag. So there you go.
None of this stuff came attached to it.

26
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.439
This is the key that came separately. It just pulls right out here.

27
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:49.319
It's got a little three point five
millimeters jack right there. It goes

28
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:51.560
in the bottom. You can actually
turn I was reading in the manual.

29
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:53.680
This is the key pointed up right
now. You can actually turn it whether

30
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:57.680
the paddles are down and you can
do it that way, or you can

31
00:01:57.680 --> 00:01:59.760
turn it around the other way that
way. If you've got it in the

32
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:02.640
bag, it's not going to protrude
out the top. So a little bit,

33
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:06.200
a little bit safer for carrying it. I guess, but if you're

34
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:08.199
using it, I assume you'd want
to put it in this way like that

35
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:10.960
and then you can kind of key
it right there. So this is the

36
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.400
power button on the side over here, and the charging button or they're charging

37
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:17.560
port rather and I'm gonna go through
all this here in a second. It

38
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:23.080
comes with this flap here, and
this is where you would put your paper

39
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:24.759
log would go in here. Now, it didn't come with a paper log,

40
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:29.400
but I learned just like last week
or something that the paper logs are

41
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:31.599
actually downloadable and you print them out
yourself. So because someone had made a

42
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:35.280
comment on like maybe the Happy Hour
or something, I don't know, they're

43
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.639
like, ah, they're gonna charge
a dollar a sheet for the log.

44
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:38.919
No no, no, you download
the pfile and you print it yourself.

45
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:43.120
So that's kind of cool. That's
the flap there. It inserts into the

46
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.280
side here with these two anchors that
are at the top and bottom that are

47
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.560
attached to this and then attached inside
of that is this pin here. It

48
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:57.800
comes with this ballpoint pin just right
there, and that attaches to the flap

49
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:01.240
on the inside, so you can
close that down have your little pin in

50
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.719
there. I always like having an
extra pin with me anyway, and then

51
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.599
close that down like that. It
comes with this antenna that attaches to the

52
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:15.840
side of the unit here, and
it's got rubber spacer type things on two

53
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:19.199
sides of the antenna for it to
fit more snugly into the side of the

54
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:22.439
case. These are built into the
radio that's not built into the cover,

55
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:24.439
but built into the radio, so
it just kind of snaps down right there

56
00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:29.000
and snaps into place, so it's
all one unit right there. This is

57
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:31.840
the antenna port on the top for
this telescoping whip, and then of course

58
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:36.080
you can add your own in fed
halfwave if you want to. So that's

59
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:38.879
the back of the unit there.
It comes with this carrying strap for the

60
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:45.039
bag. It comes with a counterpoise
with a little fork clip on. I

61
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.199
forget the name of this little blade
style connector on it that I just went

62
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.800
blank on. The name with that
is. It comes with this alan There's

63
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.800
an Allen wrench in here that will
allow you to tighten down the key if

64
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:57.879
you want to tighten it down in
there and have it a little bit more

65
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:00.319
stables where it's not going to fall
out, especially if you're carrying in the

66
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.599
case and whatnot. This is the
power cable that it comes with, and

67
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:08.520
it plugs in right there on the
side, and then it's bare wires on

68
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:12.039
the other end, so you don't
have to worry about proprietary plugs or anything

69
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.520
like that. You can simply attach
your inner some power pools to that and

70
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:17.759
go from there, or you can
attach an XT sixty connection to it or

71
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.360
anything else you want to it.
Leave it bear wires and put it into

72
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:24.079
your power supply. But that comes
with it like that right there. So

73
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.240
what I did was I built all
I put all this together last Night's very

74
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.839
modular. You didn't have to solder
anything. There's no kit building there,

75
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.240
nothing like that. It just came
in pieces and you just assembled it last

76
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.399
night when I was assembling it.
It comes with the battery, but the

77
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:40.360
battery's not installed. So what I
did to get the battery in. You

78
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:44.480
just pull this little flap right here
on the bottom and open that up and

79
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.079
this comes completely off if you want
to take it off. This antenna is

80
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:50.600
part of the back cover there and
then it kind of rests against the side

81
00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:57.040
so you can kind of hinged right
there. And then this battery comes with

82
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.879
it and it just plugs straight in
there. Took me second to figure out

83
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:04.560
how to route the wire down here
to where the door would close properly.

84
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:06.680
But this is how I've got it. So take a look at that.

85
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:11.560
I've got it plugged in right there. There we go. It's got this

86
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.160
little proprietary barrel connector here. I
don't know how propriet It's not a proprietary

87
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:18.720
really, but it's a different size
than it feels like. It's a bit

88
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.959
smaller size than the outside than the
outside charging cable. I don't know.

89
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:26.079
I didn't measure it, so,
but it comes with the battery out here.

90
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.639
It is a twenty six hundred million
amp hour lithium ion rechargeable pack.

91
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:35.360
So again, you just put that
in there like this, bring it around

92
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:39.959
here, just kind of real careful
with it, kind of lay it down

93
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:43.160
in there and tuck the wire down
into the side there, and then we

94
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:46.959
put the cover back on it like
that. Make sure that that little lip

95
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:53.680
goes underneath this movable piece here,
and then you're back in business and you've

96
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:58.639
got your antenna put down there just
like that. This part of the cover

97
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:03.480
here actually clips inside. You have
to. It's got these little tabs on

98
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:06.839
it right here, and it fits
down inside of the radio here, so

99
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:10.560
when you close the cover, it
kind of snaps into place. I hope

100
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:13.000
you heard it snap into place just
then. It's not going to come open

101
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:16.319
by itself, so that's that's nice. I like that. So you have

102
00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:19.079
to kind of you don't want to
force it when you're opening it. It's

103
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:24.120
still new. Also, kind of
lift up on those tabs and then open

104
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.600
it up and there you go.
You've got everything you need there. So

105
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.959
let's see if we can pick up
some signals. I'm not going to do

106
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:33.800
any transmitting of CW right now because
I really don't want to embarrass myself.

107
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.720
I don't really want to go down
that road right now. But you know

108
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.680
something for a future video. Yeah, so let's let's put this on here.

109
00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:47.079
It'll do a short wave listening on
sideband on certain bands. Probably.

110
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:53.360
Antena's probably three feet tall roughly something
like that. And it didn't come with

111
00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:56.439
a manual, and that's okay.
That's okay, because I mean, who

112
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.199
really wants a paper manual these days? Anyway, it came with a little

113
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:02.199
paperwork that told you how to how
to connect the power supply. I think

114
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:05.240
I don't remember something like that told
you one thing out of a bunch of

115
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:09.519
things. So but I just went
on their website. It's just a PDF

116
00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:13.439
file, is all it is.
So we can go through right here and

117
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.480
the part I was mainly, and
it shows you how to do everything I

118
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.560
just showed you right there. It
shows you how to do how to insert

119
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.480
the battery, how to close the
back cover there, how to connect the

120
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:26.319
cover. The blue arrows right there
are the little tabs on it where the

121
00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:30.439
cover inserts into the side of the
radio itself. And that's some other stuff

122
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.759
there. Tells you about the pen, tells you about the antenna. This

123
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.720
right here, this is the part
I liked right here. Okay, So

124
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:39.319
when you go here, and I'm
gonna switch back and forth between this a

125
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:43.639
couple of times. So when I
go over here, I've got four buttons

126
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.680
here. This is your AF so
your volume button down here that's left.

127
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:50.600
You can see on the screen there
it says AF is twenty seven. Okay,

128
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:54.720
it goes up to thirty. Not
very loud. Most of you CW

129
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.600
guys, you're probably going to be
using some sort of headphone, especially if

130
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.759
you're out in the field, so
you know, it doesn't need to have

131
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.319
a lot outspeaker. Something this small
is not going to have a loudspeaker.

132
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:03.480
And that's okay, it's not a
big deal. This is your two,

133
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.399
that's your VFO two NOB and you
can see right there it's on fourteen two

134
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.879
fifty four. And I'm not really
picking up anything in here, but I've

135
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:16.120
got my I've got my intenna horizontally
pointed that way right now. I was

136
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.000
hoping to pick up something, even
if it's a weak signal. I don't

137
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.399
know if you can hear that or
not. But if you go back to

138
00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:24.879
the manual here, which you can
do, this is an explanation of all

139
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.600
these buttons right here. This is
an explanation of all these buttons right here.

140
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.079
And you can say, you know
B and C Jack. Of course,

141
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:35.480
this right here is your SPD plus
and minus the words permitted up and

142
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:37.320
down. So if we go back
here, we can you know, this

143
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:41.440
is the words permitted up and down. It goes down to eight words per

144
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:46.200
minute, and it goes up to
fifty. I think that's like NJ seven

145
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:52.159
Victor level CW. Charlie, that's
like Charlie level CW. I that's not

146
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.360
for me, but it does,
you know, twenty words a minute eighteen

147
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.759
sixteen fourteen. I'm not sure what
difference that's makes. Does that meaning that

148
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:03.799
you're listening at that speed because it's
the it's not listening, But maybe that's

149
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.080
expect what you're expecting to send at
I'm not sure what that means. I'm

150
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.360
not sure how you set words for
minute because usually it's whoever sending to you

151
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:13.200
is sending it at certain words per
minute, and whatever you're sending is up

152
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.200
to how fast you key. So
I'm not sure even that what that is.

153
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:20.159
But you know that's that shows just
how inexperienced I am with CW.

154
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.039
So these are the up and down
buttons there turn the volume down a bit.

155
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.440
If you long press these, they
do something different. So if you

156
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.000
long press that, it goes into
this menu here, which is the FL

157
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:33.519
menu, which if you look right
here, it says, yeah, the

158
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:35.799
receiver FL one through three attenuator.
That's your attenuator. So you can go

159
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:41.960
zero dB minus ten minus thirty and
you have the writ there, so so

160
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:48.080
I can go at minus ten just
like that and then that will this will

161
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:52.600
exit out of it. So long
pressing the buttons does something different. This

162
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.519
is the PFN and transmitter power level. So you've got the tuner there.

163
00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:00.440
If you long press this button here, the second one from the left,

164
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.480
you got the tuner power level that
does something different. There. Okay,

165
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.039
this is usually the exit key than
one on the far right here, So

166
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:13.080
we go there. Span power PF
three is test. I wonder how you

167
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:16.679
do actually do the power hold to
and select low or high. About two

168
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:20.799
watts on loan, about five watts
on high. So if you hold it

169
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:24.360
twice, long press it twice,
long press it's on low power. Now

170
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.320
a long press it one more time
and it turns to high power. So

171
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:30.440
there you go right there. Okay, good good, good, good,

172
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.519
good good. And this is this
is a very good manual, very breaking

173
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.279
down all this stuff, very good, very detailed oriented. So and we

174
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:41.720
can go into this button here,
which is your band in mode not in

175
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:48.840
auto tune. Hold it down,
okay, sof VFO or memory. So

176
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:54.200
we've got forty meters there, thirty
meters, fourteen dot two which is twenty

177
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.240
meters, eighteen dot oh which is
seventeen meters, and twenty one which is

178
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:01.759
fifteen meters, so it goes fifteen
through seventeen meters, twenty meters, thirty

179
00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:05.120
meters and forty meters, so five
bans advertises five band. I'm not sure

180
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.039
what that last menu is in there. And then if you want to change

181
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.519
the mode, we can scroll down
over here and see how to change mode.

182
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:16.600
Holding ban mode brings up this display. Yes, tap one two to

183
00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:20.639
change the last band to change modes, hold one, there we go.

184
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.240
So holding one, it's got this
plus and minus. So you go to

185
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:28.440
up and down. So we're at
the bottom of the list. Now CW

186
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:33.559
we'll hold that lower sideband, upper
sideband, and that's the top right there.

187
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.639
Okay, Now I'm on twenty meters
upper sideband, and as far as

188
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.519
listening goes, see if I can
pick up a signal at all. Let

189
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:48.200
me vertically polarize this thing. I'm
inside the shack. This is I don't

190
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:54.320
know if you can hear that.
There's a guy talking out there. So

191
00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.799
it's receiving. It's receiving, and
in traditional allocraft fashion, I suspect that

192
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.039
that this uh that this receiver is
fantastic, so it is receiving. So

193
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:07.000
good, let's put that right there. Make sure I got that out of

194
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:09.600
the way. Okay, because I
do want to want to go through the

195
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.320
rest of this menu here, so
we can go back. So if we

196
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.639
if we short press that, it
goes into RPT one, two and three.

197
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:20.519
I'm not sure what those are.
RPTO, Oh, there it is

198
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:28.480
RPT oh recording. You can record
messages, okay, record and record and

199
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:31.639
play messages. Okay. And then
if you long press that this is the

200
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.519
menu, then you've got You've got
all kinds of stuff in this menu right

201
00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:41.440
here. Okay. So you turn
the afknob to change menus, you can

202
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.919
turn logging off and on. It'll
log for you the key weight key jack

203
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.639
i ambic firmware version. There's a
firmware version. I'm on one dot one

204
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:58.440
five right now. Ee initiate display
mode ATU parameters. ATU mode is bypass,

205
00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:01.000
so we're gonna have to have an
antenna, okay, and a lot

206
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:05.159
of a lot of menus in there
so you can get into the menu that

207
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:09.919
way. Pretty cool. If you
want to operate a radio like this and

208
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.559
you have no idea what I'm doing
right now, I highly suggest you go

209
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:20.279

210
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.120

Ham radio, about getting your first, second, and third hand radio license.

213
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:35.200
Learning CW is an art into itself. You can listen to single sideband

214
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.759
with this radio, you can't transmit
single sideband, so this is for CW

215
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.559
operators and Ham Radio Prep to my
knowledge, doesn't have a CW course,

216
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.480
but there's plenty of CW courses out
there. But the first thing you have

217
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:50.600
to get before you can start learning
CW or before you can start using CW

218
00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:52.200
on the air. I should put
it that way is get your hand radio

219
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.159
license, get your technician, get
your general get your extra license. Use

I'll be interested to hook like a pac

229
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:33.360
tenna or the sparkplug gear antenna or
something like that. So a resonant here's

230
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.480
the cool thing. Something I just
thought about. A resonant forty meters in

231
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.519
FED halfway because guess what. You
know what, I don't have to have

232
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:41.799
eighty meters because this radio dies new
eighty meters, so you've got a shorter

233
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:46.399
intenna. With a forty meter INFED
halfways is usually be about sixty five ish

234
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:50.759
feet I ish, and an eighty
meter in FED halfways is about twice at

235
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.159
about one hundred and thirty feet.
Well, I don't need eighty meters an

236
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:56.080
eighty meter intenna for this because it
doesn't go to eighty meters, so I

237
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:58.759
only need forty through fifteen. So
it'll one of those Pac ten is with

238
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:01.240
thanks cut in it, like the
one KD. Emerdy made for me.

239
00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:05.879
It'll do ten, fifteen, twenty, and forty and then you got a

240
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:07.919
link in it cut for seventeen that'll
do almost everything you need to do.

241
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:11.279
Except with the exception of thirty meters
on this radio. So a good practice

242
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:16.600
would be to set up a in
fed halfway connected to this and actually do

243
00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:18.080
some listening out in the field,
which is something I'm going to do.

244
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.120
What types of videos would you guys
like to see on this radio? I

245
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.600
tell you what, I am going
to send this radio to Charlie because I

246
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:28.159
told him that I bought it.
I bought this. I should have said

247
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:31.440
this up front. Also, I
purchased this radio. They did not send

248
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:35.080
it to me. Ellacraft did not
send it to me as as a gift

249
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.679
or a loaner. I purchased this
radio with the Edgewood package. That's the

250
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:41.840
all the extra stuff that we talked
about today, because let's face it,

251
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:46.639
I'm my name's Jason, and I
buy radios that I don't need. After

252
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:48.600
I purchased it, I sent a
message to Charlie on Discord. I'm like,

253
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:50.279
hey, did you see this?
He's like, yeah, man,

254
00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.799
I'd love to have that, but
I just bought an ftd X ten.

255
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.000
I'm like, I'll tell you what. I'll send you mine if you make

256
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.039
some videos with it, and he's
like really, I'm like, yeah,

257
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.360
man, come on. It's CW. It's right up your alley. So

258
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:03.960
let me know what videos you'd like
to see me make with this thing,

259
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:07.240
And let me know what videos you'd
like to see Charlie MAKEE because he's going

260
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:07.759
to do a lot better CW than
I will.
