what is the range?

With the g90 tuner you can ditch the 9:1

That was pretty cool.

I made one using a PVC pipe after your first video on it. I made a qso to a POTA in WI from So Cal on 10m since like you showed it had a workable swr

I might have to pick up a Slinky and give this a try.

First time watcher, enjoyed the video here. AA9IG is the call. I used to have a friend that used a pair of slinkies in a dipole configuration suspended via NYLON rope about 60' in the air. I am not sure that he didn't use 2 slinkies per side of the dipole. Anyway, he fed it with 450 ohm ladder line with a home made tuner. He swore he could tune the thing from 160 to 10 meters. He did state however the inductance at low frequencies was hard to capacitively tune out. He also employed some sort of pulley/nylon rope configuration to lengthen and shorten the slinkies while in the air. I would have loved to play with something like this in my younger days! And by the way, he also stated that the slinkies rusted badly over time. The time frame would have been in the early 1990's. Take care and please upload more!

great job thanks 73 from kb2uew

Pretty interesting. I don’t know a ton about this subject.

Whats the menu 1,2 or 3 for full unlock ?

Great video

He just made it in 65 days! EPIC instagram.com/p/C9u4ch8Os8O/?igsh=MWRpbzh3NnR3cmZ0

Your S-meter works well?

What battery pack are you using?

Where did you get the little radio tent?

Way to tear it up!🤙🏻. Keep them coming Bobby.

Which PTT? That radio has two of them.

The Tidradio H3 is NOT water resistant.If this radio is water resistant,it would literally be a perfect radio. Tid Radio,are you listening???

My 1st H3 went out in flames while charging, replacement radio doesn't transmit at all. TID refusing to send the replacement, advising me to put the battery of replacement radio to 1st radio (one that burned out in flames). Tragi-Comedy...

Lighting and the Thunder. You like Imagine Dragons?? Imagine draggin these n%+$ on that chin.. ahaaaa. Awesome video you and Ricky looking good brotha 🤙🏻

Was in Reno and Carson City Saturday through Monday. Should have turned my radio on to 146.520. Hear all the crew on your video. 73

Good activity : x6200 very good for ssb . Reports are good.. Ricky dog is calm and interested by Sota. I have made a test with X6100 and hope to have a 6200. I have had a KX2 also. I suggest you have a small tablet on your knees for activation : I have it and it is a must for writing . 73 alainf8feo

Great Video

Cool vid De: N6VOA 73 Thanks

Thanks for the qso! 73 de Jon K7CO.

Thanks for another great video Bobby (Thunder Thunder, Lightening Lightening) Hope to work this week on our TN Camp-out 72 de KN4OK

Epic spot!

What a place! Thanks for the vid.

Good experiment! Thanks for posting...73!

Please note that if you order the Baofeng programming cable from Radioddity for this radio it WILL NOT work with the UV-25. It was built with too much material around the plug-in and WILL NOT seat into the radio programming receptacle. They have zero clue that this is an issue and sent me a replacement that was exactly like the first even though I clearly explained the issue.

What do you have the radio's Input and Output settings at?

KK7SWB- great video! new ham question- where did you get the band chart at 8:18? thank you

N No keyword

Let's do this

I tested many of these batteries - they average out about 5150mA/h. The initial ones released were labelled as 2800mA/h…

For the benefit of someone who hasn’t touched a Slinky™ since I was a kid 😀 - are there different sizes of slinkies? Did you buy a _”genuine”_ one or a knock off? How far will one stretch (and still go back to its original size)? I saw (on _AliExpress,_ I think) a loading coil for a _PAC-12_ antenna for a reasonable price. I wonder how adding one of those to your setup (to _base load_ it) would work. All of my HF gear was stolen (uninsured!) over a decade ago, and I’m looking to get back into the HF portion of the hobby. I’d like to start by putting together a (QRP) _”go pack”_ for HF, piece by piece, with _”affordable”_ ham gear (if that even exists). *73 de AF6AS*

Привет мужики 73

Nice video 👍 The radio looks very well. I love QRP it's a great challenge. Thanks for sharing, 73 de OK1JHR

Kick ass on the QRP activation! And France Too!

Nice view from the summit!

😂Nice! I finally made it onto one of your videos!

It looks like cheap chinese smartphone.

That sounded like W7TA/R. I’m not great with code, but I think I got that one! I’ve heard that one enough.

What a beautiful view and that rig is great .

Nice rig!

Just updated mine with that usbc cable perfectly. Thanks for the video

I have an hf rig mounted in my truck. I own a Hustler mobile vertical but for kicks I decided to try running a wire (maybe 35(ish) ft long using a 1:1 BALUN with a counterpoise cut for 30 meters along the ground. I ran the radiating element up to and routed it along the aluminum eve of my front porch in the pocket just under the gutter. This is facing South. I used nails in place from Christmas lights to hold said antenna wire in place. I don’t know how the aluminum may have played into the characteristics of the antenna but living in Southern Illinois, I was able to tune 20 meters and receive and contact SSB up and down the Eastern Seaboard, Florida, all of the way into Texas and Oklahoma in the early morning hours. This kind of faded by mid morning though as conditions changed. It worked quite well and is the closest that I’ve come to running a “Gutter Antenna”.

Try using Flrig for CAT control and select Flrig as your Radio in WJST-X. I hope that helps. 🙏

Por mi parte ha sido COMPLETAMENTE IMPOSIBLE de configurar en dos ordenadores distintos... un montón de problemas con el COM, con las librerías DLL y con el JTDX y WSJT-X.... Ya lo tengo preparado para su devolución y reembolso... Seguiré haciendo FT-8 con mi Icom IC-7300 que funciona de maravilla! Una pena! Cuando hagan algo MAS FACIL DE CONFIGURAR y que sea PLUG&PLAY de verdad, lo compraré. Menuda BASURA! 73s

I really wanted this radio, I really wanted to like this radio but, I ordered one with a second battery that promptly shorted out, once I charged it. dead... day number two, ( after a few good QSO's) I noticed no power output - zero... after charging it on its cradle .... I'm wondering if the stun/kill feature somehow engaged ? really weird behavior . my good old UV5R is about 12 years old, and it has never had any issues- ever , and it's so worn out that the keys are worn out- it has been everywhere with me. so this whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't know if this is a CHIRP issue or a stun/kill (somehow) or charging issue? I'm going to try flashing the firmware - hoping that it solves the TX issues? friends say - so what it's a $30 radio, but so is my old timer.
