QBC is a Q-Code that Gary K4AAQ and Jeff AC4ZO (SK) invented on a HamRadioNow show a few years ago. It resurfaces following a Facebook post that Gary answered recently.

APRS has already been my favorite VHF/UHF radio feature. Today, sadly, there are fewer handhelds on the market that can do full-featured APRS.
Today I will talk about my favorite full-featured APRS handhelds.

It’s because of the Exchange Rate. This means a 40m DX Commander Classic will be under $300 (this week) INCLUDING shipping. And there is NO DUTY and NO SALES TAX because it is under $800. Thank you! Callum.
I haven’t been able to publish a video in a while. Here’s why and what’s in the pipeline.

It’s called “the magic band”. Propagation of 50MHz signals over long distances is supported by serendipitous opportunities that arise in the ionosphere, in both the E and F regions. Those opportunities may be anticipated, but cannot be reliably forecast. You’ve gotta be there when they happen! Then, it’s magic.
Roger VK2ZRH will be covering the characteristics of ionospheric sporadic-E propagation (Es), trans equatorial propagation (TEP), and ionospheric F2 propagation. He has extensive experience in this area having previously worked for the IPS Space Weather Services Research / Engineering branch.
This presentation is also very timely with some of the early 50MHz openings to Japan occurring just this week, right at the start of the summer 50MHz DX season.
This presentation is done in conjunction with the Amateur Radio Experimenters Group: https://www.areg.org.au/

10/14/22 Xiegu released a new firmware for the G90. Here’s how to install it:
https://cqxiegu.com
(Download Latest G90 Firmware files under "Download" link)
https://github.com/DaleFarnsworth/g90updatefw
(Click on link for your operating system/architecture)
Open up a terminal and:
cd Downloads
chmod 755 g90updatefw
unrar x G90_FW-V1.79b02 – EN.rar
sudo dmesg (note your comm port’s name)
./g90updatefw ChangeLog-V1.79b02 – EN/G90_MainUnit_Fw_V1.79b02.xgf /dev/ttyUSB1
(Follow on-screen instructions)
./g90updatefw ChangeLog-V1.79b02 – EN/G90_DispUnit_Fw_V1.79b02.xgf /dev/ttyUSB1
You may need to add yourself to the ‘dialout’ group in order to access the serial ports, here’s the command for that:
sudo user mod -a -G dialout (your username)
Then COMPLETELY logout of all sessions and login in again, don’t just close your shell. Might be easier to reboot.
