Show Notes (contains affiliate links): 1 Pound POTA Pack Challenge

 

On this week’s episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly

based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from

listeners, hosted by Josh Nass – KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah –

KN6NWZ, we talk about how stuff costs things, the 1 pound POTA pack challenge, Taiwan’s preparedness and Blast from the Past movie.
