The best way to describe a go-box is a complete amateur radio station in a box. An example is described in this article. The project describes building a portable amateur (ham) radio station, known as a "go-box," housed in a durable orange Pelican case. The go-box contains all necessary radio equipment except for external power and antennae, which are carried separately. It includes items like a Yaesu transceiver, power supply, antenna tuner, speaker, and a clock. The case is designed for mobility and visibility, with a vertical layout to allow in-vehicle operation. Future upgrades might include cooling fans, an LED lamp, and built-in antennae for better functionality in various conditions.

The 6 Band Inverted L Antenna MK3 is a versatile multiband antenna designed for amateur radio operators. This antenna covers 160m, 80m, 40m, 20m, 15m, and 10m bands, making it suitable for a wide range of HF communications. The design is based on a W3DZZ configuration, incorporating traps for optimal performance. The MK3 version features a sturdy 5/8th CB mast, replacing the original timber mast, which enhances durability against harsh weather conditions. The antenna's construction allows for effective operation, particularly on the 40m band, where it has been successfully used to contact distant locations including ZL, VK, and Antarctica. Constructing this antenna requires careful attention to detail, especially regarding the radials and grounding. The traps resonate at specific frequencies, and additional resources are available for building coaxial traps. The antenna is designed to work efficiently without an ATU on the lower bands, while higher bands may require tuning. This project is ideal for both beginner and intermediate operators looking to enhance their station with a reliable multiband antenna.
