In this video I take the Xiegu X6100 to a SOTA summit for the 4th time (Ludden Mountain W7A/MN-136). I operate exclusively on the Bioenno 4.5 Ah external battery at 10 watts. I made 74 contacts including 2 DX. After this activation I offer the top 5 things I like about this radio AND the top 5 things I dislike about the radio. I finish up by answering the question, "If you don’t own a radio for summits on the air would you buy the Xiegu X6100?"
Thank you to Radioddity for lending me the X6100!
