Field Notes from N1JUR

Real-world ham radio tips, portable operating lessons, gear thoughts, and activation stories from the field to the shack.

What You’ll Find Here

This blog is where I go deeper than a YouTube description. You’ll find practical ham radio guides, activation lessons, gear breakdowns, and field notes from real operating experiences.

Some posts are beginner-friendly. Some get a little more technical. And some are just honest lessons from the field — because not every activation goes perfectly, and that’s usually where the good stuff happens.

  • Portable operating tips

  • POTA, SOTA, and location-based activation ideas

  • Gear and antenna experiments

  • Beginner-friendly ham radio guides

  • Field stories and lessons learned
