A Good Companion for the The ICOM 705?
Peter Waters G3OJV from Waters and Stanton Amateur Radio Shop in the United Kingdom has his own YouTube channel where he reviews different Amateur Radio products and homebrew ideas.
Peter has been an Amateur Radio operator since 1960 and has co-owned his Amateur Radio shop since 1973.
With that kind of experience, Peter is one of the few Amateur Radio YouTuber’s I follow.
Of special interest to me, Peter has done several videos related to homebrewing compromise antennas for small spaces.
Small space, compromise antenna projects interest me because I enjoy homebrewing antennas, have a small yard and small space antenna ideas are useful when I activate State Parks for the Parks on the Air program.
The Elecraft T1A is a fine piece of gear. I have owned one for around 3 years now and have used it on outings with several different QRP rigs. As Peter will demonstrate, the features of the T1A extend beyond a simple QRP tuner.
I’d have to agree with Peter. The Elecraft T1A will make a good companion for the ICOM 705. Let Peter explain the T1A and you can then form your own opinion.
