Mike is New York native, Board of Directors for the Rochester Amateur Radio Association (one of the largest active clubs in the U.S), and an active Parks on the Air ham radio operator. On YouTube, Mike likes to share his antenna tests and POTA adventures, and always seems to be having a great time operating amateur radio.

In today's episode I am joined by VK7HH Hayden Honeywood, also known Ham Radio DX. Hayden is active with ham radio the land of Australia, with extensive outreach efforts to increase the number of hams in VK-land and sometimes performing long marathon livestreams on YouTube. Hayden likes to share his discoveries, gear reviews, and radio experiments and recently surprised us American hams by traveling more than 10,000 miles to attend the Dayton Hamvention.

In this long overdue episode, several hams share about Jerry Hildeman, KG6HQD (Silent Key). Jerry was a huge influence in many people's lives through his work as a police officer, his superb videos about Summits on the Air and his indomitable spirit of getting outdoors and "just doing it". He passed in late September after a long battle with brain cancer. A few years before that he stepped back to focus on other creative endeavors, and as news of the cancer came he went straight to God and family and made the most with those most important to him.

We can only hope to be as brave, amazing, strong, and impactful as he was.

Today I am talking with Carlos KD9OLN, also known as LifeAtTerminalVelocity on YouTube. Carlos has made many appearances on various ham YouTuber livestreams and does what many would argue is the most extreme form of making contacts: While falling from the sky at 125 miles per hour. He's not the first to do this, but he's the one I know. Let's get to know him.
