Ham Radio Website of the Week: KØBG.com
KØBG’s Mobile Ham Radio website
The ham radio website of the week belongs to Alan Applegate, K0BG of Roswell, NM (by the way, I wonder if his truck is ever mistaken for an alien ship). Alan’s website is the place to stop if you are new to the world of HF mobile ham radio (or VHF mobile ham radio for that matter).
Alan’s website covers everything related to mobile ham radio - from topics that you’d expect to find on a site dedicated to the topic:
- Antenna selection and mounting
- Cabling
- Grounding
- Eliminating noise
to a few topics that are less obvious
- Insurance issues
- Hybrid vehicle issues
If you are interested in exploring what it takes to properly install a HF mobile ham radio station, take a look at Alan’s site. If you already have a ham rig in your car, then I’ll bet that visiting the K0BG site will leave you planning future mobile improvements.
