Can you use earphones ?

It is 2024. Neither the supply chain nor Elecraft are what they once were. This is an expensive to buy and expensive to repair raadio. Caveat emptor.

Hej Julian! Nice project man! I haven't found your channel until recently. I'm starting a similar project myself. I'm sure your videos will be handy. Thanks for sharing.

Julian, run a fillet of caulk along the leading edge of each solar panel to prevent uplift and vibration while your caravan is in motion. Great Video, thank you.

Do you need two genasun controllers for this solar panel or is one enough?

I can't believe I missed this when it came out....... GREAT content! THX for all you do for your viewers

Love the A.I rendition. Are you going to paint it?

When life sends you a gift. Embrace it unquestioning with both hands. The universe has your back!

Excellent and informative video. I may assemble this kit, albeit piece by piece as my budget allows. *73 de AF6AS*

Your Lab599 information is awesome! Can you please tell me what is the Solar Panel Watts? Thanks!

Are glass panels much more durable than the semi flexible ones? I know will prowse doesn’t like them.

I'm sorry, but this experiment is not verry well done nore verry wel documented. Just trowing equipment on the floor is not how you install a solar setup. Also you did not specifiy the antenna setup and how it is located in relation to the solar system. I'm running the same MPPT 87/15 and a single victron solar panel. Although at home, my antenna for 40M is a vertical mobile whip. No problems here. However I do have lot of interference from the system on the roof of my appartement.

I have been testing portable charge controllers for Ham radio for many years and followed your advice. I went through maybe 4-5 controllers and they were from bad to insanely bad. Then couple years back took your advice on Genasun. Wow! Game changer MPPT. All I get is insignificant RF on 10m. I never tested 6m or 160m. But from testing if 80m not an issue nor will 160m. I did have a Buddipole Mini solar controller that finally died. Nice but expensive unit. Limitations were it’s not MPPT and it’s max solar line voltage and current are very limited to 150w panel and below. But still great concept and works well especially for 100w and less. . But Genasun is less expensive and far more robust and efficient too. Always great content you do. Thank you !

Nice design with Victron Energy stuff! Love it!!!

I love it, makes a lot of sense!

Have a circuit layout/diagram to share?

Not too sure 50 amps is enough

Excellent! This could be a model for any mobile op, for instance Field Day. Will you be doing a more detailed presentation with a parts list? I've already watched it three times trying to inventory everything.Thanks Julian!

Thanks for the interesting video. What application is there for Android? 73!

Nice and tidy.👍

Try making a cable assembly kit. An all in one. I’d like to how that would be done.

How can P2P be used on V/U?

I certainly hope it cost less than the original battery pack. QRP store has it going for over $500 that's insane.

Mast height is 7 meters or so?

I wished they allowed faster baud rates, the old law is too outdated!

Always like your reviews

Thoughts on its alleged spurious emissions?

Take a cordless drill with the proper sized bit to drill frozen ground

Where is Snapper?

Survival radio? Well..... First of all how "rugged " is this going to be in an ENP Event? Then, where was this made? China? Some other questionable nation? And also, there just couldnt be one or more back door shut down command(s) imbedded? Well, you're preppers, I'm just asking some sane questions here.....and $800 to $900 for this? I think I'll just rebuild some Gonset with solidstate tube replacements wanna bet who survives?

Great worl as always...still looking for my silver bullet camper. So many abandoned ones around the lakes yet they don't want to sell

Junior looks like he is ready to go right now!

That was pretty cool

I would like to see the Amp setup. Thank you and I do like the job you have done.

Cool setup, my dude

Great and informative video, thank you! 😊

From my expierence owning a Large Pop-Up Camper, I actually found it easier to make some entry points Underneath the camper. It helped preserve the integrity on the camper's sheet metal skin, and when camping in rainy weather, those entry points were very protected from the weather! When traveling, the "under carriage" of the camper rarely had problems.

excellent

Very nice!!! Thanks for sharing! Love the channel!

Can’t wait to see the upcoming parts . It’s giving me some great ideas

I would have just drilled a 2 inch hole and used a plastic PVC pipe with flex seal. I know it's a big hole. But that way you can easily put the coax through and coax does go bad.rhats why I do that

Did the same exact thing.

Nice weatherproof solution!

I hope you remember that the roof of the camper needs to be painted to keep it waterproof.

I might run a bead of adhesive to the edge of the solar panels to really glue it into the roof so when driving it doesn't catch air under it, start flapping and tearing itself apart.

You helped me make a decision on going for this G90 rig for HF go kit radio. I did add a pair of 25W solar panels to my planned self aligning charging rig just to make sure I have enough juice coming in. I'll be looking at antenna options....I can now see a compound bow as part of the antenna rig for HF. To set a vertical antenna up on a tree. 😂Thank you!!!

Look forward to seeing what you come up with for mast and antenna deployment with the camper shack. I fabricated a hitch mounted tip over/telescoping 25' mast with guy wire system.
