Found this on youtube. Very interesting way to extend the range of a 2 meter HT..

My first reaction to the video? Why would one step out of a perfectly good airplane? ��
(Yea, yea, I know... the thrill of victory and the agony of landing in a heap.)
No such thing as a perfectly good. There is something wrong with every single one of them. (Even if it is just a scratch in the paint.)My first reaction to the video? Why would one step out of a perfectly good airplane? [emoji16]

I can't remember which publication it was in, but I read an article from someone who fashioned a ground plane antenna onto their Pro-Tec helmet, with a handheld stuffed into a chest pocket of their jumpsuit, and worked some simplex under canopy.I'm sure he had the 2m HT on a lanyard. Yes, a headset would have been much better than fiddling with a remote speaker/mic and it's twisty cable!
