Why Ham Radio?
I wanted to be able to stay in contact with real people, and stay informed about the " Goings On!" Without relying on social media, or hearing about something on the news, I like that I can have a conversation with someone in my neighborhood on the other side of the world.

Personal Growth: Getting the license, learning radio theory, and explore various aspects of the hobby.

Ham radio provides reliable communication without need of traditional infrastructure.
(cell phones, internet, TV)

Global Connectivity:
Connect with operators worldwide and engage in cross-cultural conversations.

Community Engagement:
Join clubs, events, and share knowledge, and make friends.

Emergency Communications:
Play a vital role during emergencies when other systems fail.

Information Gathering:

The Radio is a Yaesu Ft991-A
I upgraded from the stock mic to a Yaesu M100 microphone.
The M 100 is a dual element mic and has built in lo cut and hi cut filters.
The antenna tuner is a manual Palstar AT2KD
The Palstar AT2KD is slower but seems to work better that the 991-A's internal tuner which also worked.

12v Power-Supply
The 12v Power-Supply was fairly simple being as how this was an RV Build, I already had system 12v system to work with. I simply enhanced it by adding a second battery, and running heavy gauge wire from the batteries to the terminal blocks I installed near the radio.

The Antennas are mounted on DX engineering tilt brackets via 3-inch aluminum angle, bolted through the wall with backing plates on inside. I used stainless steel muffler clamps to attach the 2-inch schedule 40 aluminum pipe to the dx tilt brackets. The Hf antenna is mounted on the rear of the RV and is a Comet CHA 250 HD. And the UHF / VHF antenna mounted near the front is a Comet GP 9 Dual Band.
Both antennas can be laid down via tilt bracket in the event of a storm or down the road travel.

Jorge Duenes/Reuters New York CNN � ?�?�?????????????� Since President Donald Trump won the election in November, businesses across the globe have been bracing for higher tariffs � a key Day One promise the president made. But over a week into his presidency, Trump has yet to enact any new tariffs. ?????????� onion That could change, come 11:59 p.m. ET on Saturday � the deadline Trump set for when he says he will slap 25% tariffs on all Mexican and Canadian goods and a 10% tariff on all Chinese goods. The tariffs, he said, will be imposed as a way of punishing the three nations, which Trump claims are responsible for helping people enter the country illegally and supplying fentanyl consumed in the US. Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office on Thursday, Trump said he meant business, especially with his tariff threats on Mexico and Canada. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also confirmed on Friday that Trump will levy the 10% tariff on China on Saturday. ?�?�???? ?????????� ???�???�???�?�?????�?? ???�???� Should these threats be believed?
