    Apart from single(autool dm303) vs this dual channel , what are your thought comparing this to autool dm 303 ?

    • @ElectroBananasYT
      @ElectroBananasYT День тому

      They are very very different types of equipment. Oil and water. The DM303 is designed physically for the harsh environment of the automotive applications and features functions and accessories that are only really relevant to auto diagnostics. The FNIRSI is far from rugged and has specifications better suited for the electronics and electronics repair technician and students. If you are in the automotive industry go for the DM303. If you are interested in electronics, the FNIRSI is the better of the two.

    Looks interesting! I'm more of a beginner and I currently have a Kaiweets ST600x, which works OK, I often use it for testing voltages and battery and one thing I've noticed is if the voltage is very low, the multimeter has a hard time measuring it and will often incorrectly output 0v, which can't be true since I'm able to recharge the battery. If the voltage was truly at 0v it would not be able to be charged again. The only other meter I have is a DT-830B which is complete garbage and completely inaccurate. I have used Fnirsi products before, I have the FNB48P USB meter and that works great, it is far better than my Keweisi one, it is very useful. Would you still recommend the DMT-99 or would you say there's a better meter in this price range? (£25-35)? Thanks!

    • @ElectroBananasYT
      @ElectroBananasYT 2 дні тому

      Thanks for watching and your detailed comment. If this is going to be your primary and general purpose multimeter, then I would go for something more conventional. The market is crowded at this price point, but in my opinion, it would be safe to go for the best Uni-T meter that you can afford. The Uni-T UT139 series looks good to me. Amazon also have a deal on the UT61B+ at the moment if you can get one (I have a UT61 series meter and think it is excellent). However if you want features like the graphical interface and USB charging then the FNIRSI is accurate and okay (and fun). All in all, the UNI-T is the way to go if it is your primary meter and you want good battery life, dependability, good build quality and will last the test of time. Get the best you can afford. The FNIRSI is the fun girlfriend/boyfriend and a UNI T is the dependable Wife/Husband. Hope that helps!

    • @ElectroBananasYT
      @ElectroBananasYT 2 дні тому

      Thanks for watching and for your comment. As I discovered while making this video, the radio IC used for the shortwave band is the well-regarded Si4735. This chip is also used in several other popular low-cost portable radios, including the ATS20+ and the XHData D808. Therefore, there should be no reason why this IC can't be programmed to apply soft muting in the same way as those other radios, which, in my opinion, is quite acceptable.

    Knob ! Good solution but I think cutting an IF trimming tool could be an option.. It is a shame that manufactures forget the interface to the 300 lb gorilla as AVE would say. Spending a little more time and money on a quality knob makes for a more satisfying experience. Cracked screen, looks like that is Polystyrene , the Fluke would be Polycarbonate which is more expensive but resistant to impact.

I like the twin ferrite bar antennas. Makes the external antenna inputs look less gimmicky IMHO. Also a better speaker. 2 displays are also a plus. I don't need a flashlight. Some people will disagree. I wonder how long the included batteries last with 2 displays? I may soon find out! Thanks again...keep up the great work...😎

    I tested a couple of units of this model FNIRSI DSO-TC3. I was more interested in the values of the parameters than the functions. All of them presented a big problem with the measure of the volts. I made a simple volt divisor and tested it with two different connections: a Voltmeter and an Oscilloscope. In both cases, the low impedance of the device influences the measure, and the voltage is wrong. When measuring with a DSO-TC3 Voltmeter, the result is the same as measuring with a proper voltmeter with a 2K Ohms resistance in parallel. When measuring with a DSO-TC3 oscilloscope, the result is the same as measuring with a proper voltmeter with a 1M Ohms resistance in parallel. They don't have any software compensation and display the wrong measure. See the attached file for the results vs. the theory. I contacted FNIRSI at the beginning of May 2024 (via email and WhatsApp). The aftersales department knows nothing about the equipment's functioning or electronics in general (they didn't know what a voltage divisor is, even after I sent the drawings). They tried to ignore the situation, and they asked me to pay attention to their website in the future in case they make a firmware update. Nothing happened until today, 17 Jun 2024. Previously, I sent the same complaints to the internet shop I purchased (in Taobao, China), and they told me the issue was a one-device issue and changed it for me. After verifying similar output, I found this is a design problem, and the manufacturer is trying to ignore it. Note that their specification already announced an input resistance of 1MOhms. What is surprising is the value when using the Voltmeter and the fact they have no correction for the displayed value. (I am using the most updated firmware version until June 2024.) On the other hand, if you want to use the signal generator simultaneously with the Oscilloscope, it will deliver a standard pulse wave of 10,000 Hz, three v, without possible modifications. I am talking from memory; I may get the frequency wrong.

    I just received my Raddy RF320 radio. Being VERY new to SWL Al the buttons are as foreign as the one who wrote the instructions. When a foreigner tries to write an English text they write the meanings and descriptions in the manner that their home speech directs them. They do not know and understand the nuances of the English language. An American who speaks the manufacturers language should write the manuals. Particularly in instances such as this, where the product is not designed for the experienced SW Listener/operator who knows about band designations and all the symbols on these radios. It took me over an hour to figure out how to set my clock on the Raddy. It is fun when learning is not a brain swelling process. Tedium is not my favorite cuppa tea. Eventually I will figure this bugger out.

    Just now I got this 2C23T but one thing I found: the volt value that write on oscilloscope screen less than input but the drawing is correct , input is 5.000 V and the multimeter mode is correct and drawing wave on oscilloscope is correct but the value write on oscilloscope is 4.800 is there a way to calibration ?

    • @ElectroBananasYT
      @ElectroBananasYT Місяць тому

      Hello, there is a secret calibration function (it is in my video at the end), but it is only intended for use by FNIRSI during factory calibration and there are no instructions on how to use it - so don’t!!! You might uncalibrate your device!! The multimeter does provide slightly different reading sometimes, especially with ac / fluctuating voltages as the multimeter attempts to give RMS values. Were you measuring DC?

      Hello, it should last 6 to 7 hours. Refer to the current consumption test in my hardware review of 2c23t at the 38:30 mark. ua-cam.com/video/L8-KsOObSY0/v-deo.htmlsi=8_FU_l1tizvvcI4v

    Your channel is pure gold. Hope it keeps growing. I look forward to seeing more of your projects. It would also be fantastic if you could provide a electrician/electronics technician device benchmark table and a reliability/durability rating. I would definitely trust and rely on any information you share in those areas.

    Hi, is the Oscilloscope slow charging? And why does the battery drain even I'm not using it or even I turn it off by pressing the power button?

    • @ElectroBananasYT
      @ElectroBananasYT Місяць тому

      Hello, that is strange. Mine holds charge well when the power is off. The only time I lost power was when I was carrying it in a bag and the power button was accidentally pressed (it is not recessed or protected from accidental pressing). It only uses 5V charging and can’t charge at higher voltages. Sorry to hear of your troubles. Perhaps get in contact with FNIRSI, they are quite helpful.

      Hello, output voltage can only be changed in 0.1V steps. So the lowest is 0.1V.

    Incredible video that you've done here. And thank you much. It really caught my eye when I recognized it as the same radio that I purchased a couple months ago. I must say that I did not open my radio but I am very impressed with how well I like the radio. It is packed with some amazing features for no more than its size. Soon I'm going to build a better shortwave antenna externally from my home. I will probably just use an alligator clip to connect to the telescopic antenna and then I will probably draw the ground off of one of the auxiliary jacks . Again thank you for your video and I will share it. I will also endorsed this radio as being an excellent choice for a prepper radio and for its value. You did a good job in showing that this radio is well built. Again thank you and I will be watching more of your videos.

      I know, it is a very big boo boo! Terrible PR for them and makes you question their QA processes. I also don’t like the use of the word ‘Gear’ instead of ‘Mode’ when selecting the mode of their multimeter function.
