Nothing better than the opportunity of a vacation to test a new antenna! The QRPGuys Tri-Band 20/30/40m vertical antenna works very well and costs very little. Also a quick look at their SWR indicator. Most of the filming in the Spanish Canary Island of Tenerife, off the West Coast of Africa. https://www.patreon.com/radioprepper DISCLAIMER: The Radio Prepper logo (depicting a microphone) is indeed inspired from a famous flag created in 1775.

You can extend your local radio range to regional comms using the 2m band with SSB, CW or digital modes and a good Yagi-Uda antenna.

Between the PRC-349 and PRC-351 you find the PRC-350 portable military radio. It is pretty compact, covers 36 to 56 MHz FM and outputs 2W. While pretty small compared to the 351/352, it still isn't as practical for prepping as a modern handheld, but could be part of a group communications plan. It is also very inexpensive for the quality you get. Yet I would not recommend it but for a limited set of applications due to their age. 6m FM is a great band, under-used and under-appreciated.

Quand je faisais de la CB, à l'âge de quatorze ans, le TOS était roi, et malheur à celui qui dépassait 1.5:1! Alors que ce nombre mystérieux n'est pas si important et certainement pas toujours une bonne indication de l'efficacité de vôtre antenne...

Copper tape can be used not only as shielding but as an antenna element. I bought mine on Ebay. Garden supply stores or hardware stores might carry it. You can imagine many uses on windows and other surfaces.

Not the most exiting video this week but your coax cable is a key item in your antenna system and should not be regarded as secondary.
