There's too many socials and I've got no sense of direction on what I want to do with them anymore, so here's an update on my newest hobby/obsession. Ive loved tech and telecommunications specifically my whole life. Playing with the CB radio in my grandfather's and Dad's trucks growing up was the coolest thing to me, and I love finding ways to keep people connected, so we got my GMRS license!
I'll be studying for my HAM technician test next, so here's my solar powered cheap handheld setup for my jeep. It's not fancy but damn it works pretty good, might need a better antenna though.
Most importantly it's all completely removable and independent of my truck for portability, and powers a meshtastic node for texting without cell service and bolstering any networks I find myself in!
Do you guys like nerdy cheap communication tech?
