E1731: We Rented a Camper Van to Test Ham Radio in the Desert

Join me on an epic road trip adventure: renting a camper van and touring stunning national parks while activating POTA (Parks on the Air) for ham radio!

In this video, I rent a comfortable camper van and hit the open road to explore breathtaking national parks, combining outdoor adventure, camping, scenic drives, and portable amateur radio operations. Watch as I set up my ham radio gear in beautiful park locations to activate multiple POTA entities—making contacts worldwide via HF, CW, SSB, and digital modes while enjoying nature at its finest.

Whether you're into ham radio portable ops, POTA activations, van life travel, national park exploration, or just love combining hobbies with adventure, this vlog has it all: camper van tips, park highlights, radio setup walkthroughs, pileups, scenic views, and the thrill of hitting those POTA hunter contacts from remote spots.
