Quick video of my backpacking gear im hoping to test out soon. Yaesu FT-817nd LDG Z817 Tuner Yo-Yo tenna Deluxe Dipole 7.2 AH sealed battery 2700 Mah AA batteries Looking to have some fun with this gear and do some mountain top qrp work maybe a few Summit on the Air, Activations “SOTA” and really earn my contacts =)

Just a little video I took of my FT-817 receiving PSK-31 signals from 14.070.15. Also showing it running totally on battery power. Near the end you can hear some of the actual PSK-31 signals.
