On the front panel, look at the upper left corner. You'll see a series of holes in a snowflake pattern. _That's an internal condenser microphone.._ It works a bit better than the cheapo hand mike.
It would make a nice video to showcase the CW decoding and keyboard input.....if you haven't yet. Might be nice for those of us that are still learning and trying to get our copy speed up. You could check the screen if you miss something in your copy.
Is this rig capable of split operation? If yes, is it possible to listen to both VFOs simultaneously, perhaps by assigning one VFO to each headphone channel?
Nice introduction. I just received mine yesterday and was enjoying it for a bit then suddenly it stopped tuning more than 50KHz up and down on any band in any mode. If I repress the band button, it switches to the other Mode Memory on a different frequency, but I cannot tune up and down more than 50KHz still, strange. On 40 meters the lower limit of the 50KHz range I can tune is below 7.000 MHz, out of band. I connected it to the internet and ./update ./build but still no joy. I am thinking some setting has become awry.
I have the same mic with my latest uBITX. Filling the case with cotton fixes the 'coffee can't echo. It's not a bad mic, and is geared for operators around the world on a budget.
I have one for you....can you add a monitor to it? Thinking for logging. It would make sence to have the log application up on a separate monitor to so you dont have to flip flop windows Update has a dvr port yes a second monitor is possible
@@HamRadioConcepts Nope, I posted from this account 3 links for the Sbitx with a comment of "these should get you down the rabbit hole". Certainly nothing rude as I own one too.
I tried FT8 yesterday and worked Hawaii but lost the log info when trying to figure out how to log the contact. I am used to WSJT-X where the box pops up asking to log or dismiss. I guess I should have played with it off line learning how it works. KL7HRO
I just got one a couple of weeks ago, and I'm looking forward to tinkering with it more!
Interesting radio... Thanks, Eric, for taking the time to make this and share.
Looks sweet! I love waterfalls
The HF radio big names need to start offering this form factor. This is the future…
This is a game changer 🤯 wow
Nice, we are in the best of times and the worst of times
those wobbly knobs would drive me crazy.
Tighten them

Thanks for letting me know. Was thinking of purchasing. Did not know where it was made. Now it is off my purchase list.

That is freaking cool Eric daaaang
This looks very cool.
Keep us updated with this rig
I got mine a while ago. SN 0237. I am looking forward to more videos from you. KL7HRO Dennis in Alaska.
Firstly, I would just insert a Heil Mic element into the Existing Mic Housing.
Thank you sir, i just get mine, any antenna hf if i want to make it my self? or what you are using for hf? 73 from mexico :)

What are its antenna matching capabilities? How much mismatch will it tolerate without blowing up the output FETs?

I figured it out, I moronically had the RIT enabled, whoops.
Waiting to see your microphone selection
I already wired one up. And it works great. Video tomorrow

Remove the top small cover in the right to get to it
I posted some links for this radio from my other account but they seem to be missing from the comments. WTF?
Maybe that other account was one of those who cussed me out in the comments and I had to block? Or if not, I'm not sure why....

@@iowahank1 Must have been the 'rabbit hole'.
Does it cover 10 and 11 meters?
80-10 meters
@@HamRadioConcepts transmit also?
I bought a V1. It was not a good experience. I wish I would have waited until things were more mature.
No fuses on power cable?
@@P.SeanCoady fuses are overrated
The battery will eventually catch fire and melt whatever connection is making the short.
I‘m also now a sbitx owner - and some qso, s are in log. Now I’m looking for a solution for export the log - has anyone a idea for this to do ?
@@rtf5715 haven’t gotten that far yet
You need to let us hear ssb and cw.
I have the next serial number up. Just make sure you power the pi down first or you will have issues ask me how I know lol. Kc0mqg
How much was that unit😮
$429
@@HamRadioConcepts not bad man wow this unit unit had my mouth drop dang
Looks very cool, but to tiny for my eyes.
u might be able to connect to bigger screen like tv etc
It has an hdmi port
Refresh speed spectroscope and watterfall is horrible
