GoKit Challenge 2026 Preview: Show Your Portable Ham Radio Setup & Win Awards!

In this special episode previewing the 7th Annual GoKit Challenge (March 21, 2026, at Double Tree Ranch Park in Highland Village, Texas), host Tank Radio interviews organizers Scott and Kelly about the event's origins (starting 8 years ago over Whataburger discussions to inspire portable ham radio setups), its focus on education/sharing rather than pure competition, and how participants display their self-contained, battery-powered go kits (beyond just an HT—think full portable systems with radios, batteries, antennas, accessories, and use-case customizations for POTA, emergency response, public service events like races/marathons, or ARES support).New Tanker Radio Gear:New Tank Radio Pillow - https://www.etsy.com/listing/4295008136/tank-radio-pillow-for-amateur-radioNew Tank Radio Black Out T Shirt - https://grapevineamateurradio.com/products/tank-radio-black-out-t-shirt-on-demand-orderTank US Band Plan Pad - https://quirkyqrphamradios.etsy.com/listing/1657938891Hoodies - https://grapevineamateurradio.com/products/tank-radio-hoodie-limited-timeBoonie Hats - https://www.gigaparts.com/tank-radio-logo-boonie-hat.htmlSticker Pack - https://grapevineamateurradio.com/collections/combo-packs/products/tank-radio-official-sticker-packHelp support me by:RollerCam Website - https://classic.avantlink.com/click.php?tool_type=ml&merchant_link_id=6e7562a0-f7b0-4d9a-b15e-25ce3aedb94a&website_id=16611296-f891-4f8b-8010-5fa29c2cab5f5% off selected Items at Gigaparts- https://www.gigaparts.com/nsearch/?lp=KG5AHJ%20INFLUENCER%20PAGE5% off at Alpha Antenna - https://www.alphaantenna.com/?aff=20Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/TankRadioBuy Me a Beer: https://buymeacoffee.com/TankRadioPayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/TankRadioAmazon affiliate:https://amzn.to/3ZlhjznTank Radios T-Shirt : https://grapevineamateurradio.com/collections/youtubers-bunch/products/tank-radio-short-sleeve-t-shirt-special-orderFollow me on:Discord:  https://discord.com/invite/5gGCq4wY8n Channel Tank RadioTwitter: https://twitter.com/KG5AHJ
