Goodgame Ham Radio & Outdoors
United States
Приєднався 23 кві 2016
Goodgame Ham Radio and Outdoors is a channel dedicated to teaching hams, new and old, about amateur radio. Being a middle school teacher, I am fortunate enough to get to teach amateur radio to some of my STEM classes. We have a school club and have had 36 students in all and 3 staff members earn their amateur radio licenses. I am committed to expanding the knowledge of all hams, and spreading the love of ham radio as much as possible.
My daughter, Jherica, and I enjoy POTA and often make videos about park activations. I also do many radio related product reviews.
We stream live every Wednesday evening at 7pm Central time. Additionally, we try to post at least one video per week. Those usually fall on a Monday or a Thursday. Scheduling on those varies slightly because we try to collaborate with the other content creators in the UA-camrs Bunch.

First Ever Connecticut POTA: A Video of Many Firsts and Jherica Operates W1AW!
As those of you who have followed me through the years, you know we made the big move and are relocating to Connecticut. In case you didn't realize, there are some serious differences between Mississippi and Connecticut. Enjoy a brief snapshot of some of these 'firsts' as we get settled in our new home. One of the biggies, Jherica operates W1AW at ARRL HQ!
I've gotta say, I was impressed with the Icom IC-705 and the ARRL EFHW. Running QRP we had a great time.

Retevis RT5 Review: Does it Really Do 8 Watts Out?
Переглядів 5 тис.3 роки тому
Retevis was nice enough to send out a couple of these radios for the Padawans if I would do a review. While not perfect, generally not a bad little radio. But... does it really do 8 watts?

Use Chirp it works perfectly
having ants and other bugs etc is essential for a healthy hive. Many beekeepers deliberately create conditions to encourage other bug life into their hives.
Too much dead air time....got tired.
I did not see any actual power test in your review. I bought one of these from Amazon because of the advertised 10W output power. When I actual tested it (2m band) the highest output I could get was 6W, which is barely 0.8dB more than the typical 5W HT. So if you're buying one of these because of the allegedly higher output power, think twice!
Still studying for my technician license, and really am fascinated by all of this. Only reason I wouldn't be interested in using the internet repeaters is because if we ever had to communicate without the grid I’ll need to know how to work without it.
Great vid! Thanks
in 2024, anytone site is trying to install a trojan. Really sucks, but you can't trust any software that comes from China.
Καλησπέρα σε όλους την βοήθεια σας θα ήθελα εάν γνωρίζει κάποιος για το icom 2730e μπαίνω στο μενού κάνω κανονικά repeatet όλα καλά μέχρι εδώ την άλλη μέρα μπαίνω μέσα και δεν το βρίσκω έχει μόνο RESET CLONE INFO τι έχω κάνει και χάθηκε το RPT M
Yes it does and its my everyday carry.
Hello sir, I've got this. Santana waited a few weeks to get it and I can't get any piece of coax. I have connected to connect. There's not enough room under there and I ain't got to 50 foot cable directly from Alpha antenna can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
You should have an elbow coax adapter that comes off the antenna unit to make it so you can attach the coax
@@K5ATA no, I didn't get that in my package. They are going to be sending me one.
Very informative! I am buying an IVOM 2730a this morning.
most importantly, it has a CAT interface
which battery are you using there?
It was a Bioenno. Pretty sure that one was the 30ah, but that radio is so battery friendly a much smaller one would work fine.
How has this worked for you
Hi, have you listened to any CW? My JBL bluetooth buds w/ my IC-705 do not sound good
well I don't have a staple gun so the glue will have to do
i'm sold. been eyeing this radio for awhile now. doing research, watching reviews. this might really be the one for me. thank you for a great video.
Can I add CTCSS to the uplink and downlink just to avoid any unnecessary interference coming back to my handheld radio?
You just blew my mind...! Buds 2 pro connected ..! This is gonna make work so much easier .. and fishing too, with the speaker mic set up... did it manually first on the radio then found out you have to enable in tools on software for that menue to appear with vox options..
I have had the tuner for about a year now. I opened the box two days ago and have been using with the 705. I am very pleased with it.
excellent thank you
This video hits different today. Thanks Steve! 73 VE3GKT
Yeah, it kinda does… sad news for sure. Thanks for watching
To me CHIRP = Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse. Your video does not start at the "beginning" and assumed prior knowledge. This was the most confusing thing I have ever seen. I was unable to get a clear view of your actions. Not large enough for me to actually see what you were doing. For some maybe this was enough but not for me.
Can I do FT8 as a Technician?
Yes! @LonSeidman did some videos about some of what he was doing as a technician, you should have a look at his channel. Here is a video he did about it as he was learning. Great stuff. ua-cam.com/video/P3sjvr8TY7I/v-deo.htmlsi=erq2GNjBlUY-LCQ5
After you opened the box, I was lost. Why did you do any of this?
I have been looking for a way to make my coop and some rabbit hutches. I don’t have any tools nor knowledge of using them. But I can do this!!!! And I will do this for my rabbits. I have already watched this videos several times. And I am going to continue to watch this until I have everything I need to make my shelters. I plan to make some changes on my shelters. I like a lot of videos like this. I don’t care for those fancy ones because I don’t want to stress about trying to make mine fancy. But SIMPLE, STURDY AND FUNCTIONAL is what I’m looking for.
Interesting.
That plastic is now $20 a sheet. . fyi. Cool project!
Man what a great video I didn't have to pause it 50 times and go look up all the acronyms
Can you get a list of repeaters inside the program, like chirp does? This gives us the option to locate Repeaters, and then copy and paste instead of entering 1-by-1 with all their individual settings. I seen you open a .dat file with a list of repeaters. Perhaps I can manually create a .dat file the program will import?
I bought the same thing from Rural King this last weekend... getting ready to put it up when I ran across your video!!
How much power were you using on 10cm to with the world
100 watts
Hello Steve! I am trying to start a ham radio club at my school. I don’t have any teachers who are licensed and to be honest, I don’t have too much experience myself but I love ham radio and I am licensed. Do you think you could send me your ham radio course materials and such so I can get a good idea of what activities I could do with my ham radio club?
Send me an email at k5ata at ARRL.org and I will see what we can do.
run off a 12 volt battery system, or 120v ? in other words, is it a mobile unit anyone? thanks
878UVII here - when I set squelch to OFF I still don't hear the hiss/white noise until I hit PF1 which is set to "monitor". Shouldn't I be able to hear the hiss constantly? (The optional tone decode is OFF for this channel.)
After removing the 319D diode for the lCOM 2730, the transmitter (TX) became permanently on. When I turn on the signal repeater. Is there a solution for that?
thanks great job 73 from kb2uew
great job fantastic station 73 from kb2uew
Does anyone know if the ground grounds out the Coax Shield? Wondering if I still need to but something to do that
Can you set this radio up to act as a repeater?
Could you please re-do this video? The screen is hardly visible. Also, can you please be more deliberate when pressing buttons. You seem to start to push the buttons then stop half way through making it harder to follow.
how compare icom to tyt 9800d plus ?
Newbie question: please clarify what a “load on the antenna” means? TIA
Am I able to use one dual band antenna for this or do I need two antennas and a duplexer?
I'm trying to follow your instructions but Win 11 and a new data cable keeps giving me a FileNotFound Error on COM 4. I try to get it to find the port but it can't find it either. Any suggestions?
how did you raised the tri-tel pole with the house already in place?
Wow Thanks. First video of the many I have watched that simply go me going with a codeplug! K4ADA
Love the family effort !!!❤ Much to be grateful for. 73 de KF4LBG
My rt5r radio incoming from main base station too slow. If i near the base incoming the best.
