    I like to also carry 4'-6' of duct tape wrapped around an ole gift card and about 8" of srlf-adhering waterproof repair tape.
    I also carry about 25' of mini-paracord or dynema thread/twine.

    I love the Zebra pens, but I like the medium-point refill... I'll have to see if it fits in the pen you recommended.

    Good stuff, thanks. I have radio manuals on the computer and have printed important pages from them to carry and try to avoid bringing the entire manual. I have a leatherman in the glovebox of my car. Forgot about it recently and found it accidentally. I like the lamiator.

    Non "all weather" pens can smear and wash out when wet. I prefer a good pencil like the Pentel GraphGear 1000 with .7 lead

    Great list. I agree with the items listed. Instead of a flimsy poncho I do carry my old army rain poncho which I’ve had since the late 80’s and it still works great! 73.

    that was great ! love the tips. yes I have over looked things in the past and needed in the field. and I have been doing this many years. The thing I like to add is like the Giga parts band plain mat. some park tables not so clean. and the band plain info does help when band hooping. can ass mouse pad if you need. their is several mats on the market. just pick one or 2 or more. very nice to have portable. and some parks a must. I even used the rain poncho for the radio when rain came in. I won't go with out them . 73's

    • @KM4ACK

      Great tip on the mouse pad. I always think of the poncho as a radio cover. I'll survive a downpour.

      The Comet analyzer is fine. Even a simple NanoVNA will work. Just having an analyzer with you is the important part. 👍
