A look at VK1MIC's summer SOTA loadout

I know we all love to peek into each others gear loadout, here is a write up I did of my gear and why I use different things. I wrote this when I got my new backpack.

Hey Wade @VK1MIC Great write up, I was using a tacticool backpack when I first started doing sota and after a couple summits I had to upgrade my pack as well cause it was causing me shoulder issues and once I upgraded to a good pack the problem was solved.

I did a short gear loadout video of my gear and pack for my YouTube channel (I need to update for the winter loadout).

Hope to catch you on the air someday!

And this isn’t funny I went the opposite way. I went ultralight day pack up to the beefier Tacticool option. I think because much like me it’s built for comfort not speed hi hi

Wade,

every time I click on the links to your blog, “Wade In The Water” comes to my mind instantly.

Haha thank Pom, yes my parent chose my name as it couldn’t be shortened, and really didn’t rhyme with much.

Also as a professional scuba diver Wade - to move through water seems fitting,
