Re: [IRCA] Using a portable heater while DXing

[Les Rayburn <les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I second the recommendation for the catalytic propane heaters, such as the "Buddy Heater.â Iâm in the TV production business, which often requires us to work outdoors in cold weather. Itâs not uncommon for us to improvise shelters for clients and actors in these conditions. But safety is always our top concern. Power isnât always available in remote areasâso the Buddy Heaters have proven to be a great solution. 

DX is great, but nothing is worth dying over. 

Catalytic propane heaters are safe to use indoorsâand provide decent amounts of warm. BTW, the cheapest solution is insulation. Donât overlook the value of keeping your feet and body off the cold ground (which robs body heat). Wood is great for this. Placing some fiberglass or foam insulation overhead is great too. 

Good luck, I envy you!
