I'm mostly behind the camera on this Ham Radio TV, but not this one! Check out my Winter Field Day, Vlog style. I have made so many great friends from this hobby and wanted to share how much fun we have!
We are the 2 Meter Crew! We are not a Club or a Gang. We are just a bunch of Hams from all over the East Bay to the foothills of Northern CA.
We work a lot of 2 meter FM simplex and do our part in keeping 146.520 MHz alive! We also enjoy all bands and all modes. Winter Field Day 2020 was our first, on the air event that we are all together physically.

Canon 5D IV: www.amazon.com...

Splendid party in weekend. I like field day also.

Many thanks!
Great job Jason
Thank you Cliff!
Nice video Jason , looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I will go up there one of these days for sure I think you can do a SOTA and POTA at the same time .
Thanks! It had a bunch of noise on HF up there by all the cell towers and what not. It was great on VHF & UHF. Making contacts on 146.520MHz was like shooting fish in a barrel. lol
Great promotion of our 2 Meter Crew, AND a great production, too. Good job, Jason.
Thank You! It was great Saturday and a fun video to make.
Excellent work you put a lot of time and energy into that video👍👍👍👍
Thanks Buddy! I hope people find their way over to the 2MC channel from this.
Nice! I worked you guys as W6SCE and also tripped over your 14! Good on ya and nice video! AI6OU
Thanks! Yeah, we had a great turn out.
Nice video.
Thank You!
Looks like it was an awesome event...Shout out to Nick W6NIK..I'm Nick ZR6NIK - Johannesburg South Africa.
It was a lot of fun! Oh, shoot. I will have to let Nick know.
@@HamRadioTV thanks Jason, have a grand week further and best 73's to you and yours.
My home! From Antioch, can see Mount Diablo from there, me and friends would go to the top and talk on our cbs back in the early 90s.
Very Cool! I believe that's how The Green Donkey got started too. He goes up there a lot and has a channel too. Check it out: czcams.com/channels/OjjIROB7XWmkcPqpMmAKvA.htmlfeed
And here's his older channel that has a lot of CBing.
Is that Joe Walsh of the Eagles inside the car?
HA! No. That is Jim NN6EE. He is a legend in his own mind and will tell you if you ever catch him on the air.
Fantastic video. Looks like you all had a blast. De W8APP
Thank You! It was a lot of work, but did not feel like it at all.
Nice video Jason. I like the elevation/timeline overlay..Pretty slick. It was good to meet the group for Winter FD up on Diablo! If you guys need some assist with converting the logs to cabrillo format (or direct adif) for uploading, please let me know. There's also a few things that we can talk about regarding the number of simultaneous xmtrs on the air ("Class"). Some N6W ops reported "14, Oscar", and others "10, Oscar". Maybe we can also talk about the additional Section Lists (like VE and DX), front end mixing products/qrn from the local commercial tower, current prop condx, and what bands work for local day/nite in preparation for Summer FD. 73, n6spp
Hey! Just got into ham radio a couple weeks ago. Passed my tech. exam and found your channel. I'm actually right here in Concord at the base of Mt Diablo. I'd love to come out with you guys next time and see what this contest stuff is all about.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that radio makes everyone sound younger than they seem
The inner child comes out to play.
Yup, it's like trying to judge a book by its cover. Although in your case, we all assume your a lot older. lol
Way cool Jason. I missed that day. I heard you guys coming down though.
Awesome!
Is it not ok to have those radios outside? Are they not for indoor use only?
I don't see the difference, outside or inside when the weather is nice. I've always liked to play with my toys outside :)
@@HamRadioTV Just that every manual I have read says do not expose to outside weather.
Greetings from SA. That's awesome... Can I ask what software did you use to edit this video? I'm running the hamradio club here In my town called GRATE "Hamradio group of Teresopolis" and your video is an inspiration for me.
Congrats and 73

Thank you Carlos! I use Final Cut Pro X on my older 2011 iMac. I'm in the process of building a custom PC and I will then be switching to Adobe Premiere Pro. 73 KM6FAK/Jason
Rock'n and roll Jason 🤙🤙🤙
Very Good video! Thanks for all of the Interesting, good work. de UA1CCE
Many thanks! 73 KM6FAK
Great video! Thanks for all of the hard work. KN6FZZ
Great vid, great crew, $10 to drive up a paid for road *uck California :-)
Great vid Jason. Looks like good times were had by all.
Thanks Mike! I got to point the camera at me in this one. lol It was a ton of fun!
Excellent video Jason! I had a chuckle at the "it's not too cold, my car is showing 50 degrees (F). Here we just had a 40 degree Celsius (104F) day just after our Summer Field Day!
Hey Hayden, Thanks! Yup, our summers and winters are 180 degrees from one another. Summer in January does sound odd :)
@@HamRadioTV Winter in January sounds odd haha!
