We Fixed Xiegu Digital Modes

We Fixed Xiegu Digital Modes

The TOADs DI8 is here! This new TOADs DI daughterboard brings digital modes to the Xiegu G106, Xiegu G90, and Xiegu X5105 by connecting those radios to the TOADs DI interface.

👉 The all new TOADs DI8: https://temporarilyoffline.com/products/toads-di8-daughterboard?&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=TO&utm_content=di8launch
👉 The TOADs Digital Interface: https://temporarilyoffline.com/products/toads-digital-interface&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=TO&utm_content=di8launch
👉 The old TOADs DI6: https://temporarilyoffline.com/products/toads-di6-daughterboard&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=TO&utm_content=di8launch

👉 Australia and New Zealand Customers can find it on Hayden’s Shop: https://shop.hamradiodx.net/products/toads-di8-daughterboard?variant=45293522485282

Works with:
👉 Xiegu G90: https://geni.us/PoFT
👉 Xiegu G106: https://geni.us/H7KV
👉 Xiegu X5105: https://geni.us/HLjf5

Accessories
👉 Xiegu 8-pin Mini Din Cable: https://geni.us/Asv2
👉 TOADs Shell: https://hamradiolife.shop/KM9G Code KM9G for 5% off

If you’ve wanted to run FT8, Winlink, JS8Call, HF APRS, VarAC, FLDIGI, digital logging, or other soundcard-based ham radio modes with your Xiegu radio, this is the little green goblin-board that makes the magic happen.

In this video, Hayden VK7HH and I are launching the DI8 together using YouTube’s collab feature. We’ll show what the TOADs DI8 is, which radios it supports, why the Xiegu accessory connection matters, and how this adapter fits into the larger TOADs DI ecosystem.

The DI8 is designed for:

• Xiegu G106
• Xiegu G90
• Xiegu X5105

With the TOADs DI and DI8 combination, these radios can be connected to a computer for popular digital ham radio modes that use transmit audio, receive audio, and PTT control.

Whether you are chasing DX on FT8, sending Winlink email from the field, experimenting with HF APRS, or just trying to get your Xiegu radio talking to your computer without building a cable from scratch, the DI8 is built for exactly that job.

This is part of the growing TOADs DI family of digital radio interfaces, built for hams who would rather get on the air than spend the weekend angering the cable goblins.

Supported radios in this video:

• Xiegu G106 digital modes
• Xiegu G90 digital modes
• Xiegu X5105 digital modes

Topics covered:

• What the TOADs DI8 is
• How the DI8 works with the TOADs DI
• Why Xiegu G106, G90, and X5105 owners may want one
• Getting Xiegu radios onto FT8 and other digital modes
• Digital ham radio interface options for portable HF radios
• Collaboration launch with Hayden VK7HH

From puking to pulling in monsters. It eventually works out. #fishing #catch

We are out on the open ocean, with the Independence, getting into some serious deep sea fishing. The saltwater fishing was incredible, and you can see the fishermen at sea working hard to get the bites. This fishing video captures all the action and the thrill of boating on the big blue. 🎣

Never Get Stuck Again: The Ultimate Blue Multi-Adapter Kit

In this video, I’m showing off the blue universal multi-adapter kit from GigaParts that has officially become a "must-have" in my ham radio gear. Whether you’re doing POTA or a home setup, having the right connection for BNC, PL259, or more esoteric plugs is the difference between playing radio and going home empty-handed. I’ll walk you through how these interchangeable cores work so you can stop carrying a bag of random adapters and start being prepared for any connection.
