Picked up one of these at a local ham event. Just used it on receive so far.

Which tablet! Surface Go, Pro 4,5,6 or X?

How do you find this aerial on 7mhz? I have one and that band is not very good. The rest work OK.

The website you mention does not exist. Have you made another site?

Jason, great video are you any good with the FT 450D by any chance?? I'm stumped with settings but so annoyed seen as I've used this interface on the FT 2000, FT857D and FTDX1200 but I cannot get this 450 to play ball!! Just out of interest, on this video at 6:02 you're setting for PTT shows CAT selected but the drop down is USB, how did you change this as mine is always just the COM port mirrored from the left hand side. Any help appreciated mate Cheers Steve M0LVL

How did you get your screen setup like that on the 7300?

Peter Gore Seer, I Have One,My Original Antenna, Is Just As Good, On Recieve But Is Larger, So I Get No Better Signal.

Is it suitable for raspberry pi 5? Thanks.

Hi Jason, thank you for the video and the AL-705 one. I am trying to decide which one as don't need two. Like AL-705, would fit in my bag. I know a subjective question but out of the two which do you prefer and why, please?

Hi I just purchased a uniden ubc125xlt for my daughter and we live in Nottingham could you advise me on a antenna to purchase so she can listen to air traffic control from home... Any advice greatly received... Thanks

The close call on my Uniden 125 works great. I can pick up planes flying overhead, and even security guards radios in the shops around 3/4 mile away. I live in a raised position looking down over the town which may help with receiving the signal. Does the squelch setting have any bearing on the sensitivity of the close call mode ?

You keep it on top of a printer? How good are these things with rfi? It’s really cool!

Condolences to you and your family. Why were the handheld scanners on the top left not mentioned? And the Yaesu 7900 is only a dual bander, the 8900 is the one, and the only one, that is the quad band .

Just a glorified dummy load . Far too expensive when you can get better results for a fraction of the cost with a ten meter fishing pole and a 9.1 unun

I wanan say OBS is a great peice of softwear i ise OBS when i do my live streams on my youtube... also the ft991a is a great radio

SORY FOR YOUR LOSS AND BEAUTIFULL HAM SHACK...FROM VA3DLO...

Im about to purchase a vertical antenna and can't make my mind up between the Diamond BB7V and the Comet CHA 250 it will be permanently fixed to the rear of the house at a height of roughly 18 feet, im told the Diamond works better closer to the ground not sure if this is correct !! Im also in South Wales

Any updates/thoughts?

Been using the D777 myself for the last 9 years has served me well, I use Airspy R2 for scanning.

I have one too. It's in the shed because i don't have space anymore. Apartment. Used it in the past. But not in optimal setup. Wasn't that impressed at the time with TX. Made the antenne 1.5 meter longer and used a PVC coil to tune it up to 40 meters. Mono band. That didn't do bad! Also tried it with a 9:1 balun but not a good SWR on all bands. My conclusion: I can't use the antenna right now. If i ever move again, this thing goes on the roof or in the garden with radials. Its nice stealth. Original balun is be used for wideband SW RX coverage and its a good feeling that it can TX everywhere. I love the antenna. Would not recommend it for new users. It's expensive. There are better solutions and much cheaper.

I have mine for almost a year now. I'm in a noisy environment and have also a 1:1 choke in line. And grounded the loop. For the price its a good antenna. MW reception is pretty good i must say! 160/80 meter band surprisingly not so good. 40,20,11,10 fine!

Could it be mounted to a wooden post?

I used to have similar antenna Comet CHA 250 , at urban crowded , tight space housing complex, vertical antenna's noise was so high, it was not suitable for receiving, but for any frequency higher than 14 MHz, it worked OK, I change to inverted L since I do mostly 10MHz and below. AG6JU

Hello, i'm just looking for this video ... today a fellow hamradio shared is setup at POTA Group Facebook and reported very nice signals with this antenna As I operate QRP also with my X6100 this video is very importan and useful SWR values are really very goods ... at 10 M swr was 2:3 ... the X6100 tuner managed to tune it? Many thanks for sharing / 73 CS7BDO

Cracking video, great to see all the swr readings. cant believe that factory! I used to live and work in South Wales all around Bridgend too. MW7FMD

+1 for actual thermal images!

twelve months on, how is this fairing?

Nice overview of this loop but I was hoping that you would do an A/B comparison with your other antenna so that we could see the noise floor difference between them.

Have you tried JS8CALL portable. My 817 work very nicely.

god job from danmark 73

Try the Broadsword antenna. I find it to be very good

Nice pic sir ji 👍👍👍..my channel ki tarpse shudhkamna sir ji 💯❤

Great presentation/video. I am now in the market for a MLA30 or a MLA30+. Both look great VFM. Thanks. ATB.

Had one of these. I hung it on the fence at Gatwick and forgot it 😂 someone had a lucky day

Id like to see a close call on UHF, my 125 is dog crap no matter what antenna i have it doesn’t pick up much at all even if I’m stood right at the fence with pre programmed freqs

that's a coincidence ring way Manchester just done a bit on DISCONE jobbys

Its not 73s it is 73

Great video Jason. I can never decide which one I would have 991a or the 7300. Still think the 7300 would win. Motters 73 (00) 😂

Interesting video Jason. And iv got the IC-7300 love it. 73s Ben 2E0TKK

Interesting video. I have two FT 991A's and comparing the ATU in both Yaesu's to my TS590SG, the ATU in the Yaesu can not compare or even come close the the ATU in my TS590SG. Both the tuner in the Kenwood and the Yaesu are rated for up to a 3 to 1 SWR. Bottom line, the ATU's in both of my FT-991A's and the ATU in our club's FT-991(non A) are terrible. I was going to get either an FT-710 or an FTDX 10 but since the ATU in my 991 sucks, I am sure the other two Yaesu radios use the same junkie ATU. I really like my FT-991's, hence the reason I have two of them, but you must use a very good resonant matched antenna on these radios. Barry, KU3X

I've heard you must be within 200 m to receive any close call hits.

Hi Jason. Very interesting and thanks. I too am Raynet (wales) and use the same ft8900r. So if I’ve understood correctly you set the two frequencies (2m and 70 cms) as cross band repeater on the 8900 and that means you can use a handled or two handhelds to communicate via the 8900 if you are away from your vehicle for example. Have I understood that correctly as it would be very useful when on events. Is it that simple or have I missed something. I guess the handheld are on lowest power setting also ?

Thank you another great video. And cheers for the mention 73s

Hi Jason cool videos enjoying them thankyou for the Email. 73s De Ben 2E0TKK

Any luck with the non NOAA satellites? METEOR M2-3 or anything like that?

Tip for the silica gel thing - silica gel cat litter is way cheap to buy in big bags from a pet shop. Same stuff. Shove loads of it into a sock or something stuffed in the box and it'd work a treat. I used to use it to keep my windows clear in an old draughty lada during winter :)

That manual isn’t showing how to make the cable. It should have an RS232 level converter in the D9 plug.

Boa tarde! Alguém saberia informar se há necessidade de licença para ter um Cross band , já tendo licença de radioamador?

The Close Call function has two modes for displaying the received frequency. In the first mode, you need to have time to press any button very quickly, to see the transmitter frequency. The second mode makes a temporary write to the databank memory register called CLOSE CALL HITS. The most difficult thing is to find and see what is written in this bank. Before each start of the CLOSE CALL function, it is necessary to enter the Close Call menu, find the Scan Hits function, go into it, and select SCAN HITS ON and press the PgmE button. After you start the Close Call only mode, and after, when you receive the carrier frequency, you can view it later, while the Close Call function is running, press the SCAN button, then immediately the HOLD button, you turn the knob at the top of the scanner counterclockwise and find the treasured data bank called CLOSE CALL HITS, and there are all your received frequencies.

Radio muito ruim deixa muito a desejar , o volume é por etapas digitais e não linear, um dos lados tem menos sensibilidade que o outro, cabo do ptt ao lado quebra facil, dificil de sintonizar pelo minusculo vfo que ao girar voce acaba girando junto o volume ou o squelch, me arrependo de ter comprado essa porcaria
