I've learned to make and use checklists for whenever I leave the house for about everything except going to church.

You bring up some good points here and have me thinking that I need to double check my radio go-bag.

Good on you for pointing out a mistake we can learn from. Thanks!

I am in the process of building a Go Box in a Pelican Case. This way I grab one Case and go.. What happened to you could happen to any of us...Thank You for sharing this as I am sure it will help many PS--- Yes! There will be a HF Radio in this Box ...KC3ZDW 73's

I made a POTA checklist. Before I leave the house I check off all the items. Works great

Mistakes are the best way to learn

Thank you

Thank you for your comment and opinion. I do SSB, FT8, FT4, and FM, and AM. But as the activator, I choose what modes I use in every different scenario. I use digital more when I'm out with the family, or busy working in the shack etc. I know it's not for everyone 🙃.
