Thank you tremendously. This configuration works great. I was having issues until I referenced your video (PTT issues).

You can buy a kit from "Coffee and Ham Radio" for a decent price and they will help if you wire it incorrectly- don’t ask me how I know. Just google CAHR Poseidon.

I think fewer bettert videos are a good thing, or it becomes another job. I would have thought one every two weeks would be enough, it will build up your video catalogue. I have no idea how you manage to do what you do. Well done Morten. I'll send you a Ground Plane disk for that anetnna.

I like your reviews because they feel honest. Basically when hams review stuff from fellow hams it’s just an ad. Your reviews feels like reviews. 73!

You are one of the few youtubers that I follow that can actually look into the camera lens and give the impression that you are looking at, and talking to me. Others, I can tell they are simply looking at the camera, and talking, but not necessarily to me. I've been subscribed for awhile now. Hope to actually work you one day. ae0pl

This is solely my opinion ! But Amateurs are their own worst enemy, when it comes to Antennas ! It has been a recent discovery of mine, to just buy 135 feet of Super Wire, run it to a tuner, and operate ! You'll spend more time operating, and having fun, than trying to calculate proper dimensions, and wrestling with formulas, that unless you have sophisticated test gear, you'd never know the difference ! Just my two cents ! Maybe a little more figuring for inflation ? 👍😉

What software did you use for memory channels? It is in the chirp list. But chirp says not authorized, the software on the retevis site come in out of frequency. It starts at 149mhz and won't let me go down to 145 where I need it. Sent 3 emails to Retevis customer support and nothing sent back, let me know if you can. Thanks from ko4fud

Life first and then videos when it makes sense and you have time and enjoy making them.

Excellent video and full of info. I was so weary to pull the plug on one but now I'm going to order it. Thanks for the vid.

Keep on doing what you are doing, Dont worry about the amount of videos you put out. Quality over quantity always wins!

For a slightly faster match try setting the tune control first as that is the more important one then the load control then bounce between the 2 for final optimization. Once you "know" the antenna dialing in the initial approx settings on a manual ATU for just a final little optimisation can be so quick that the cost/complexity of an auto-atu is hardly justified.

Bear Down!!! 🏈

Great update. Maybe switch to one per week, but have a few videos in reserve, so you can take a week off when you need time out. Chris 2E0FRU

I like your style and honesty. Will be watching you grow.

This was very helpful and interesting. Are there different versions of the boards? I searched amzon and I had overwhelming number os boards listed. Are there any criterias to use to choose a particular board?

I tried my H3 with AIOC. I could not get PTT to activate, but Chirp worked for programming, so I know the pin is connected. 🤷‍♂️ Edit: TEHRS is 1:00 pm CDT (central daylight time). Ask me again when daylight savings goes away.

The problem with sponsored product reviews is that the reviewer is expected to create a positive review, i.e. the product should be portrayed in a positive light. In case of a bad product, the reviewer is supposed to either not publish the review or omit the largest negative points. If the manufacturer or dealer is not happy with the result, the reviewer might not get any more products from them in the future. This is well known for e.g. apple products, and many youtubers have already talked about it. Recently, this has become a thing in the ham radio community as well. I have seen many overly positive and relatively low-effort sponsored reviews of ham radio products in the last couple of months. To me, as a viewer, this makes things more difficult as the SNR of my youtube experience is now lower than it was two years ago.

A video a week is good going, quality not quantity. Thanks for the update.

It's been great getting to know you, and props for all the good content you make for spreading ham radio knowledge!

I realize that there are no major manufacturers like Icom, Yaesu, etc. making radios in Norway, but if you ever get the chance to review something made in Norway it would be greatly appreciated! It could be as simple as a 3-D printed wire winder made by a ham in his basement. You have the perfect channel to showcase what hams in Norway are doing. 🙂

In other words, do your own math. Agreed! 🤣🤣🤣

Keep rocking Mort!

Another good toy to have. Thanks for that.

So... the thing works very well...but there's a software hitch?... As in the software works with the hardware well electrically just not legally?...wth?

It looks great, bit torroid, funky design. My only concern is strength as to accidentally broke yours straight away. Do you think its worth it? Do the new ones get the beefier design? Cheers, VK1DON

Had one mounted on a pac-12 coil, in a gale. The antenna remained undamaged but coil destroyed. I like it.

I'm really not a fan of 3d printing of anything for portable use. It's just not rugged enough, and so often there is an unnecessary lack of material in an effort to be tbe lightest weight possible. You should be able to rough handle a winder without it breaking, or even just correctly wind on fingers if ultimate light weight is required. 73 M3KXZ

Sounds like AI. Just sayen....

I think some people are just drama queens and blow all things out of proportion. It was a box so you called it a box. It had a play on magic so you mentioned it. I don't see anything wrong with either of those two things, they were quite factual but then, I am emotionally stable. Good on your Morten, some of your sane videos have helped me out.

Beefy torrid! Nice winder! That Kevlar wire doesn't have a lot of stretch to which is nice. 73

But, does it Abide?

Did you need to make any mods other than the length?

It is an interesting device, looks great, but losses seem rather huge. I picked one up and did a comparison between this Z-match and a ZM-4 (similar to ZM2-) I built from the designs, seems to be consistent across the 40m-10m that this z-match is able to match SWR 1:almost 1 (on either/both, depending on band, hi-z and low-z) as can the ZM-4, however the ZM-4 once matched outputs min of 8.5w with 10w from radio, but this little z-match struggles to output 3w with 10w from radio. With 5w from radio takes this output to about 1w (or about 4.8w from ZM4). Might be just fault in mine but somewhere it's losing a lot of power, dodgy torrid mix, bad winding or something else perhaps.

Nice antenna. How are you getting dual band. It doesn't look to have enough elements to do both UHF/VHF

Theres one question I need to ask. How many channels does it have?

Somehow I missed if you were doing this over HF or vhf/uhf

Great instructive video, thanks! I've actually bought the M0CVO "Magitenna" that's basically the same thing. Well, after watching your video, I think I could probably have built it myself. Nevertheless it was useful. I have two questions, if anyone can please answer: - is your unun 4:1 or 9:1? I'm not sure I can deduct this from your count of turns, sorry 😆 - how long are your ground wires? mine are 5m long but I've read that 17ft (5.18m) would be better suited? I kind of like it. Its efficiency seems to be greatly affected by the ground conductivity, though. Sometimes it performs really well, sometimes I feel that my plain 1/4 wave with elevated radials for 20m works better (for that band, of course). I also think that my 20m long EFHW in inverted V gives me better results, especially on 40m. But that's a lot more wire and poles to bring it up. Best 73s! (edited for typos and added text)

HI. Did you manage to get the scan function working on your radio. I've tried just about every combination of settings and I cannot get my radio to scan.

I'm ok with no display, but no channel scanning capabilities is a deal breaker for me, because I'm not using it as a business radio and would like to monitor many different frequencies each time I use it.

Once I qua;ified as a ham and realised that my wife and neighbours would object to me putting up a fancy antenna I bought a 80-6 meter vertical with a 4:1 transformer and despite local hams disparaging remarks I have managed some great reults on it. I now have a pole and two other wire based Rybbs as I call them and love them to bits. Simple and effective - especially for QRP ops. 73 M7BLC

Thanks for the video. I do recommend the ATU-100, had it now for a couple of years and use it almost daily coupled with a 9:1 unun, tunes just about anything with any radio.

Great video, Morten. Thinking of your tuner issues, maybe have a look at the Emtech ZM-2. 73, Chris (2E0FRU)

How to full calibration include "Through", "Thruefl", "Isolation" options?

I use an EFHW antenna. No tuning ;-)

It is a pretty sweet feature. I’m just starting to use the SDR Control apps for the 705.

Awesome video :) thank you 73 44

Great! Thank you!

How do you like the iFTx app aside from no inbuilt PTT control? I think this should work fine with something like a Signalink USB. They present themselves as a usb sound card and have in built VOX circuit. With the iPhone 15 and some of the newer iPads switch to usb C, that should simplify the cabling. I have no experience with the Digirig, but I think in theory that should work similarly to the SignaLink. I think is should have a vox circuit also.

I like that color! Thanks for the links and shoutout.. I did end up taking my 4:1 and integrating a choke on the opposite side. Interesting stuff!
