271 - Military Aviation Scanning with Mike Henson

Mike Henson is relatively new to the scanner radio hobby, but has quickly found Military Aviation and Photography to be a very interesting and rewarding hobby. Mike shares his setup, which started out as a single radio, and has now grown into several dedicated scanners and a recording interface to log all the local Military Aviation traffic. What is interesting about Mike's setup, is his keep is simple approach to his setup, which means he is using mostly handheld radios feeding into a portable audio recorder.   Besides photographing and monitoring MilAir, Mike enjoys building different antennas to help improve his reception. Our conversation will be reposted soon on YouTube in shorter form, so please enjoy our full conversation on today's podcast. ==================================== 🔗  Link's from this podcast session ==================================== Oklahoma Skywatch: https://www.facebook.com/OklahomaSkyWatch ALS News Now: https://www.youtube.com/@ALSNewsNow Skyglass: https://www.aviarlabs.com/   ==================================== 🛒  Check out our new Merch! ==================================== Squelchy opened his own store selling Scanner School merchandise!
