Xiegu Just Announced a 100W Monster

❤️ Get My Free Newsletter: https://temporarilyoffline.com/pages/newsletter-signup

Xiegu has officially revealed the new **G7250**, a full-power **100-watt HF and 6-meter SDR transceiver** with a split radio design, 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, physical controls, built-in automatic antenna tuner, spectrum display, and waterfall. The control head and main radio body can operate separately over Ethernet at distances of up to 100 meters, opening the door to cleaner shack installations and remote operating setups.

👉 Xiegu G7250: https://go.temporarilyoffline.com/4s9z39
Use Code "TO15" for $15 off!

In this video, we take a first look at the Xiegu G7250 specifications and discuss where this radio may fit in the increasingly competitive 100W HF market. It covers 0.5 to 30 MHz plus 50 to 54 MHz, supports SSB, CW, AM, NFM, and digital modes, produces 100W on HF and 90W on 6 meters, and includes network baseband streaming for compatible SDR software. Pricing and final availability have not yet been announced, but this may be Xiegu’s most ambitious radio yet.

Is the SpoolTenna the ultimate turnkey solution for POTA? In this quick look, I’m testing out the SpoolTenna Park Spool Edition—a 40m-10m EFHW antenna designed for rapid deployment.

I’ll walk you through the unboxing, show you how I deploy it using the Gigaparts POTA 33 mast, and see how it performs on the air with my Yaesu FTDX10. We even managed a great DX contact all the way to Colombia!
