Ham radio mobile set up, update April 2024

That is amazing! I'm stressing about drilling a hole to mount a scanner! LOL

Hello from Phoenix, Arizona. This is some cool stuff I love gadgets. I don’t have my ham license. I’ve been looking at GRMS lately very powerful 50 W radios that you can put in your car. They work on the repeater system and you don’t have to take a test. You need a license but it’s a 10 year license for $35 coverage your whole family. I’m sure you know all about it, anyway, looking forward to more videos

Sick looking rig. I had an old old V1 for ages until I finally gave it to a family friend. They have fantastic support and are all around a good company. Its really neat to see all the new features they have. I think SDR++ is perfect for a tablet. I have it on my phone and it feels a bit too cluttered with the small screen.

I was just watching an old video last night, this has got to be the best mobil rig yet.

What a nice setup. Could you let us know where you procured the mounts for the phone, radio, tablets., I have a 2014 Ford F-350 and I would like to do a similar set up. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the very detailed video this is exactly how I want to set up my truck ,awesome

Very impressive. Great Video

Love the set up I need you to do mine lol

nice set up!

I'm honestly still the same nerd that people called me when I was in school I'm just a nerd about cooler stuff. Awesome video by the way!

I used to love listening to scanners as a kid growing up in Phoenix. I would listen to aircraft as well, but since Phoenix went digital, I cannot figure it out. I spent $700 on a digital radio only to sell it a couple years later, cause I could not figure out how to get it to work. I even had the place I bought it from program, but I could not understand the transmissions. It sounded like it was garbled. I also didn’t know how to follow a call. I used to be really simple. They had a channel chase as they called it, which was channel one and then all the precincts had their own channel when emergency traffic came out let’s say for the seventh precinct they would switch to channel one and they would work the traffic on channel one and you could hear all sides of the Conversation, if you have any knowledge on how I could do this again I’d be happy to pay for your time. Thank you.

Awesome

Nice setup. I don't know why so many have hearburn over this. HF mobile is challenging and fun. If you think this is overkill you should see the VW GTI with the mega vhf rover station inside. Its an engineering marvel.

Watch the RTL-SDR dongle's temps my man, those things get hotter than hell! You don't want to catch your rolling shack on fire!

Hey Jack! What tablet do you have there ? Also curious to know what HF rig you’re using. 73, VE6DPC

I'd worry about the amp heating up in that enclosed space.

Pretty cool set up. Can you give us the link to the SDR you have on your tablet?

Nice setup! KE0LYC here. I'll be following!

Cool!🤪

cool rig where did you come across the radio consul looks great
