Show Notes (contains affiliate links): Leah Reviews The Kenwood TH-D75 + Alpha Antenna HexTenna Giveaway

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 keeping notes of failures, Costco’s $6,000 Doomsday kit, Twister and Leah, who is totally unqualified to review radios, looks at the Kenwood TH-D75.
