Live Show - We are Alaska Bound with Jeremy KL7EC

Live Free and Ham Podcast

Gather 'round, fellow adventurers, as this week we swap tales from the baseball diamond and sandy shores, to the icy frontiers of Alaska with Jeremy KL7EC of KL7EC Outdoors. Our camaraderie blooms in the chill of the Alaskan wilderness, where we uncover Jeremy's transition from CB to amateur radio, and how this has woven into the fabric of his extreme outdoor lifestyle. From activating parks over Denali's high peaks to innovating antenna setups in subzero temperatures, these stories will resonate with your inner explorer and radio aficionado alike.
As we recount our intrepid escapades — like flying over a frozen Denali or braving an ice storm that tested the mettle of a hex beam antenna — the spirit of ham radio adventure unfurls. You'll be captivated as we share our experiences with the latest radio gear designed to outsmart the harshest elements, share a chuckle over our 'rainforest' tent, and offer practical advice on keeping your operations toasty with wood stoves and buddy heaters amid a snowy expanse.
Our ham radio journey extends beyond the call of the wild, touching the hearts within our homes. I reflect on the unwavering support from my family, the joy of potentially sharing the airwaves with them, and the quirky challenges of learning Morse code that kindled a viewer's challenge. As we wrap up, we invite you to become an integral part of our story — through feedback, sharing your tales, and connecting with us as we continue to stitch together a tapestry of communication, adventure, and family through the hobby we love. So stoke the fire, plug in your headphones, and let's embark on this journey together.
