2026 ARRL June VHF

I jumped down a rabbit hole in April and bought an old ENG van. So, the rover van of the last couple years has been completely dismantled and the van sold. I’m currently in the process of building out the new to me ENG van, but it is nowhere near ready to be an actual rover station.

But, among other things I have managed to get a few mobile antenna mounts on, a couple FM radios in it, and enough infrastructure to be a completely impractical mobile station masquerading as a rover. Along with my dusted off FT-100 laying on the floor for 6m I managed 50-902 to run the local corner with a couple friends.

With any luck it will be an actual functional 50-1296 all mode rover by September.
