Default Re: Going Mobile with Amateur Radio

I like going /p (portable/manpack), even done a bit of 20 metres from pubs getting people to "erect" the aerial (a bit of wire), pub plumbing for earth (croc clip on radiator pipe). A quick contact to the Ukraine* or somewhere else and letting people to talk to the other station "here is my guest" sort of thing. Amateur radio is about having fun, I don't think I have broken any rules

*Always a good "hop" from here, telling the crowd that this is only five Watts and has gone thousands of miles brings amazement.
