Visiting Grenada As An Amateur Radio Operator With My Equipment

Greetings to the readers, this blog for me is dynamically update as I receive enquirers from travelers of sea and air.

A summary of some 40 visit to my place of birth and visit home.

I am attempting to address comments and offer suggestions about bringing your equipment as a traveller. The transceiver(s) you plan to bring, power supply, and antennas such as a vertical that I could mount to a balcony, a dipole, or just a long wire to run to a nearby tree or other structure.

The most important point is the safety of all equipment and devices or item’s.  In future I hope to add more pointers here.

I believe a FAQ Frequent Ask Question may be helpful so added a new tab.

Backup Communications While on the Island of Grenada

Backup Communications While on the Island of Grenada - ZELLO Free application

Greetings,

I have received many contacts about trips to Grenada from my Brothers/Sisters and fellow Amateur Radio operators.

First the island Grenada🇬🇩 is a very safe peaceful island 🏝 and expect the time of your life with enjoyment.

ZELLO Free application ( Real-Time voip )
From a logistics stand point I feel it is in the best interest to setup in advance the FREE application on an Apple or Android device.  ZELLO on a Laptop or phone or tablet application.   Understanding our primary focus will be amateur radio operations.    We need to have contingency plans to stay in communications with those “Back home”.   Using this FREE WIFI multi platform application why not.  

Your Son, Daughter, Sister, Brother etc can communicate with you FREE over WIFI from your Hotel.   NOTE: turn off your mobile data plan so no data cost will be incurred.

ZELLO is not Amateur Radio license dependent. Open user access
