The day prior to this Shantel mad a good POTA Activation and passed the key to me. I called for over an hour and a half and only made 5 contacts. It was my 1st official failed activation. I had two other attempts, But I was not trying to make 10.. I just wanted to test my set up.
This video was not started off the same. We had a visitor and lots of questions and discussion so we did not set up the camera and mic until our visitor departed. Then we set it up on the fly while activating...
I hope you enjoy these videos. Thank you for your continued support.
Thank you for watching.
Shout out to the YLs out there on the air!
This video was edited by Shantel and was her 1st go at editing a video.
