M1SDH - My HF Portable Equipment

Below is the equipment I use for portable HF, specifically designed to all carried in a back pack for fairly lightweight POTA/SOTA/WWFF activations.

The equipment I have here is with the Xiegu G90 radio, but nothing specific here that couldn’t be used with any HF radio. This is for SSB, or equally CW if you include a key.

I attached guy ropes to the mast via loops permanently on the mast, using technique from G0TRT instructional video.
