BaoFeng Ham Radio From Noob to Skilled in 60 minutes

Post author By admin
Post date October 8, 2021

Today we’re trying a new kind of live stream. We’re taking the Baofeng UV5R and we’re going to go from absolute beginner to some of the advanced used cases you might want to use. NOTE: the things we cover will work the same or similar with other Chinese radios.

Baofeng APRS cable: https://amzn.to/3orxhad (This is an affiliate link)
Mobilinkd TNC: https://store.mobilinkd.com/products/mobilinkd-tnc3
Android tablets and ham radio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3Yv5h6Bycg

My APRS Videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1KAjn5rGhizjRHAK0SsWNnI_qYTh40dB

If you want to try ION2G you can request a BETA license through the first link on their site! Or pay $20.00 for the license which will send you the license automatically.

Steps to make this work:
1. Generally you need a newer radio, like an IC-7300 and a multiband antenna matched to your radio (no tuners).
2.Download ION2G: https://www.ion2g.app/
3. Request a BETA license or purchase a license to support the development effort
NOTE: Buying a license send an automatic license to email
4. Run the application, load the license and code plug (frequency list)
5. Setup your callsign, audio in/out and setup the radio connection
6. Turn on ALE sounding to send your callSet ALC for output audio
7. Set "ALE Self Address" to your callsign for each ALE network you are on.

TIDRADIO BL-1 Bluetooth Baofeng Programmer – Flawed Execution, Poor Software

Post author By admin
Post date October 4, 2021

The TIDRADIO bluetooth programmer application is one of the worst aplications I have had to deal with in ham radio. Its odd and makes no sense and completely misses the mark of the inteded audience. It doesn’t query from online repeater sources and doesn’t understand how we program radios.

If you want a good programing cable: https://amzn.to/3Fgesww
Buy a good cable and just CHIRP on a decent laptop.
