In 2019, on the way back from the Huntsville Hamfest, I stopped by the Unclaimed Baggage Center in Scottsboro, Alabama. In short: I absolutely love the Surface Go and it is an example of the one time when an impulse purchase actually paid off! It has a fold-out back stand and when the keyboard cover is closed, it stores flat (and is incredibly thin). The Surface Go is essentially a touch-screen Windows 10 tablet with a magnetically-attached keyboard (typically sold separately). This is a perfect kit for anyone just starting out or needing to equip new workers.I’ve received numerous questions from readers and viewers about the computer I use for logging POTA contacts in the field and realize that I have neglected to highlight it even though it’s an integral part of my field kit when space allows.
