My CB & PMR446 DXing Comms Kit

A brief look at the comms kit I will be using when out extreme DXing.

Midland 77-805 Portapak with 10 x 2400mAh Duracell AA NiMH rechargeable batteries.

Homemade T2LT dipole antenna, using RG58A/U coax.

6m fibreglass telescopic rouch pole (Mast), complete with Charlie Tango DX Group bumper sticker.

Mast kit including guy lines (In drawstring bag), guy line mast attachment ring, pegs, PVC tape, mast support strap, peg-out guide and DPM pouch to keep it all in.

Cobra Microtalk MT700 PMR446 Radio with 4 x 1000mAh Duracell AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries.

SWR Meter & patch lead, compass, head torch, small multi-tool all kept in a waterproof plastic container.

This is just my comms kit and doesn't include items I would also carry in my rucksack, like first aid kit, map & compass, GPS etc.
