Xiegu G7250 Ethernet Remote Control FINALLY WORKS!
The long-awaited **Xiegu G7250 Ethernet remote control functionality** is finally working! In this first look, I connect the G7250 to **HDSDR using the ExtIO_G7250.dll plugin** and demonstrate live SDR reception over the network. We’re receiving real FT8 signals on the 20-meter amateur radio band at 14.074 MHz, complete with a working waterfall, spectrum display, and audio. After waiting for this feature to become usable, it’s exciting to finally see the G7250 communicating with SDR software over Ethernet!

To make things even more interesting, I’m running **HDSDR under Wine on Linux**, remotely accessing that computer from my Mac using VNC. That’s Windows SDR software running on Linux, controlled from macOS, receiving radio signals from the Xiegu G7250 over Ethernet! This is an early demonstration rather than a complete review of the remote control capabilities, but the initial results are promising. We’ll continue exploring frequency control, software compatibility, and what this new functionality means for G7250 owners interested in remote amateur radio operation.

Testing & Programming: Inside the Tech Unboxing! #shorts

The Xiegu G7250 firmware is here—but what can we actually verify? I’m working with a prototype, and the firmware isn’t publicly available. The changelog doesn’t identify any changes, and the production radio may use a different installation process. So this isn’t a firmware review or an installation tutorial.

Instead, I open up the G7250 firmware package and show how its encryption works. The process uses the same key as the Xiegu G90, and I walk through what that lets us see—and what it still doesn’t tell us about the update. If you’re searching for Xiegu G7250 firmware news, a G7250 firmware update, or how the G90 encryption key relates to the G7250, this video shows what I could confirm from the prototype files.

Another Amazon return lands on the bench, and this time it’s a Retevis RT95.
The question is simple: what’s actually wrong with it? Is it user error? A real failure? A weird setting? A cable issue? Something obvious hiding in plain sight?
In this episode of the Amazon Return series, I work through the radio step by step and try to figure out whether this thing deserves to be called broken, or whether it’s another case of “returned for reasons unknown.” No spoilers here, because the fun is in the troubleshooting trail.
If you’ve ever bought returned electronics, fixed a “dead” radio, or wondered what really happens when gear gets sent back, this one is for you.
