Summary
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).
