Radio repair work takes years of networking, persistence, and proving every unit works. Each radio that comes in is repaired, sold, and sent back out so more people can connect on the same frequency.

The **Xiegu G7250 firmware V1.0.1 update** introduces significant new capabilities to Xiegu’s 100-watt HF/6-meter amateur radio transceiver, including WFView-compatible Ethernet remote control, CI-V improvements, antenna tuner optimizations, and bug fixes. But does this firmware finally unlock **remote transmission (TX) over Ethernet**? We explore the new firmware, examine the potential for remote PTT and digital-mode operation such as FT8, and investigate whether TCI support is coming to the G7250.

We’ll also examine the **extended Xiegu G7250 user manual produced by Radioddity**, highlight features that aren’t obvious from the original documentation, and discuss what these updates mean for current owners and prospective buyers. Whether you’re interested in HF radio, software-defined radios (SDR), remote ham radio operation, WFView, or computer-controlled digital modes, this video explores what’s new, what’s possible, and what’s still waiting to be verified.

I Tested a 3,000W Inverter… Then My Icom IC-705 Went Crazy!
What happens when you put a 3,000W pure sine wave inverter to the ultimate amateur radio test? I put the Junbpaw LGE-3080Ti inverter through real-world power testing, running loads up to 1,000 watts before investigating RF interference and its effects on my Icom IC-705 HF/VHF/UHF transceiver. Things took an unexpected turn when my IC-705 developed bizarre touchscreen problems, including unresponsive controls and phantom touches. Was it electromagnetic interference (EMI), conducted RF noise, a problem with the radio itself, or something else entirely? In this video, we examine the evidence, investigate the symptoms, and explore what happens when off-grid power equipment meets sensitive ham radio electronics.
This isn’t your typical sponsored inverter review! We’ll discuss pure sine wave inverter performance, RF interference, amateur radio compatibility, and the challenges of diagnosing electronic failures without jumping to conclusions. I’ll share what I observed, what I could verify, and what remains unanswered. You’ll also hear how Junbpaw responded when I reported the problems and why they encouraged me to publish my findings anyway. At the end, I’m inviting fellow amateur radio operators, electronics technicians, and engineers to critique my testing methods, challenge my conclusions, and tell me what they would investigate next. This video includes a paid collaboration with Junbpaw, but the findings and opinions are entirely my own.

This is RT95 radio number 26 across the bench, and the goal is the same as always: find out whether this returned radio is actually broken, just misunderstood, or perfectly usable after a proper test.
These RT95 / AT-778UV radios are compact 2 meter / 70 centimeter dual-band mobile transceivers that are popular for ham radio, GMRS-style platforms, mobile installs, go boxes, and budget-friendly VHF/UHF setups. Returned radios are always a little bit of a mystery box, so each one gets tested before it moves on to a new home.
This video is part of my ongoing returned-radio testing series, where I check radios that came back from customers, vendors, or returns and see whether they are actually defective or just need a fresh setup, a programming check, or a little bench time.

This Tiny CB Radio Has a Secret Radioddity Didn't Advertise
The Radioddity CB-606 Pro promises more power, better performance, and features that take this compact AM/FM CB radio well beyond the original CB-606. But can a simple modification really unlock 19 watts and turn this little CB into an outlaw radio? In this video, we’re comparing the Radioddity CB-606 vs. CB-606 Pro, testing AM and FM transmit power, modulation swing, audio quality, noise blanker performance, and the new 12V/24V compatibility. We’ll put both radios on the test bench, measure real-world RF output, and find out whether the Pro upgrade is actually worth your money.

Then we’re cracking open the CB-606 Pro to investigate its hidden expanded-frequency mode, including the solder modification that unlocks additional channels and potentially higher transmit power. Can this modified CB radio operate on the amateur 10-meter band? Does it support SSB, CW, CTCSS tones, repeater offsets, or useful 10-meter FM frequencies? And what makes a high-power CB radio illegal under FCC regulations? Whether you’re a CB enthusiast, trucker, off-road adventurer, RV traveler, or licensed ham radio operator, this hands-on Radioddity CB-606 Pro review explores what this surprisingly small radio can really do, what its limitations are, and whether it deserves a place in your mobile communications setup.

Ham Radio Bands: Get On the Air and Bring Them to Life #shorts
Ham radio bands only wake up when people start transmitting. Just like contest weekends prove, the airwaves remain quiet until operators take the initiative to communicate. Use the bands more to get the signals propagating.
